What is it, the “L---“ word?
Can it be measured?
How many teaspoons equal one touch?
Can you time it? when it starts and stops?
Does it come and go through a seive?
Is it a mountain of grain
with a few weevil husks thrown in,
to be sifted out later?
Does a mother’s come by the gallon?
Is a daughter’s a batter of baking powder and sourdough
with a drizzle of maple syrup on top?
Does fermentation help?
How many litres equal 62 contractions?
Is ‘need’ the leavening agent?
Will love rise higher if it is not kneaded?
Does 1/4 litre of need equal 2/3 C of pain?
Can we make a cake out of it? A birthday cake?
Does being both a mother and a daughter
require you to double the recipe?
Does discussion clarify, like butter brought
to high heat, separating milk solids from the pure gold?
What the hell is it, anyway
Should we be thinking about it at all, or just
take it with a grain of salt.

Trying to learn something new, one always comes back to one's self. Will we never learn? Learning to make a kimono tree3 confronts a basic hurdle, thanks to a patient teacher.
