    Dear Al Purdy,

    we all grow up to know:
    water comes from a tap
    light comes from a bulb

    and so

    we can speak to the world
    with our fingertips
    we can know anything
    with our eyes

    and what ever happened?

    to hard human labor, as a means
    of paying for one's life
    directly anyway

    the direction doesn't matter
    where will we go?
