Pause.

 

Before I hit the lab and grab my tools
I peruse the world for inspiration—
how the sun has lifted again
from the pit of night.
And out of the pit has brought with it
new hues to strew across the sky,
something no eye has seen.
It’s been said that every inventor
must be a bit mad to keep at it,
failure after failure,
concocting a future no eye can see.

Hope is Invented Every Day.
Earth’s crammed with heaven, and every common bush afire with God.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning
