Pitcher This

The pitcher cries for water to carry 

and a person for work that is real

Marge Piercy

The trivial

The trite

The meaningless

The repetitive

The placing of numbers within columns

Words upon pages

Papers within files

Does it all mean anything?

Of course it does

Because when you bring yourself to the task

It becomes art

                                                                     And then
                                                                the pitcher is full

And that's poetiquejustis

                                        Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, 
                              as though you were working for the Lord and not for people.
