I live my life in growing orbits
which move out over the things of the world.
perhaps I can never achieve the last,
but that will be my attempt.

I am circling around God, around the ancient tower,
and I have been circling for a thousand years,
and I still don't know if I am a falcon, or a storm,
or a great song.
--Rainer Maria Rilke (translated by Robert Bly)

I've been spinning with a drop spindle. I'm horrible at it, but it's hypnotic.

I sold lots of soap this weekend.
