Wedge, Wonder, and Weigh

 

I Ching’s Hexagram 24 says

that rest precedes rebirth

as one must learn

to become seed,

 

even seed at rest

for seed means rousing

from underground stillness

akin to the columns

 

on which temples bank

and which prayers gentle

wind and roll and wrap,

 

in waving fluted paths

to take in Heaven’s rays,

crowning life with light.
