Humility

Out of this chaos,

make your plan.

     How on earth?

     Is this a joke?

No, and please,

make that plan.

     But with which pieces

     of the chaos do I start?

     Top first, or bottom?

     Left first, or right?

A plan will solidify,

impart direction.

     But which way?

The plan,

don't you know?

It flows from you.

    It does?

Like this --

     I don't see anything.

Try this --

     Nothing's happening.

OK, let's start at the top.  Got a ladder?

     No.

OK, then, let's start at the bottom.

Got a dumpster?

     No.

Why are you dusting that lamp?

     Because it's dusty.

There are thousands of dusty things here.

This is not a strategic choice.

Why, out of everything, are you starting with this?

    Because I can reach it.
