Work stops at sunset. Darkness falls over the building site. The sky is filled with stars. “There is the blueprint,” they say.
“My task is to carry secret burdens for the world. People watch curiously. Yesterday morning at sunrise for example, you could have seen me on the breakwall carrying gauze. I also carry untimely ideas and sins in general or any faulty action that has been lowered together with you into this hour. Trust me. The trotting animal can restore red hearts to red.”
Anne Carson | “Short Talk on My Task”
