Web



Intricate and untraceable

weaving and interweaving,

dark strand with light:



designed, beyond

all spiderly contrivance,

to link, not to entrap:



elation, grief, joy, contrition, entwined;



shaking, changing,



forever



forming,



transforming:



all praise,



all praise to the



great web.



—Denise Levertov.
