Found poem from a small section of Parker Palmer's essay "Born Baffled."
Glimmer
Writing is a retrospective act
it's also a prospective act
a Distant Warning System
about the next opportunity
or demand for growth
partnering with something that is
not yet me or mine --
or perhaps something
more truly me
Writing allows the mask to fall away
Peeling away the layers
Writing toward the growing edge
A glimmer of what it might be.
