repetition

i've learned that to repeat 
a process
 repeat
 more than two or three times
 more even than twenty times
 during many seasons
 maybe even years
 makes it possible
 to begin to understand
the possibilities
there are 60 papers
ecoprinted.
i'm beginning to learn a little
my hands know a little more.

at st. lawrence university
