What are you up to today
Devils and angels of the world
I rescued a golden grasshopper
Drowning in a water bowl
Pouring it out on the open grass
And sat with it while the sun
Dried its lovely back and legs
Asking if in kind return
It would teach me how to leap
Right up out of myself
For all I'm worth
Even if only a moment's flight
Like it in the airy light
Not to drown here on the earth
