Drawing Circles
I drew a circle
it was a nice circle
but it wasn't perfectly round
it skewed slightly to the right
so i drew over it
tried to even it out
now it veered off to the left
over and over
I repeated this task
painstakingly tracing my line
correcting flaws
only to create new ones
I just couldn't get it
perfectly round
with even depth of line
and proper thickness
now
where once I had a pretty good circle
slightly skewed
but nice and neat
I have a big ugly mess

Crow see chinese child draw egg, so many time, on paper.
Every egg perfect.
Crow ask why child draw egg so many time.
Child laugh and say:
"Everybody lay egg."
Crow not know what this mean.
Child keep on drawing more egg.
Crow remember child who draw egg.
Crow remember lay egg too.
Now: many crow.
"Crow not know what this mean." E not know what this mean either. E will remember crow remembering child who draw egg. E will remember Crow remembering to lay egg. But E no lay egg. One E is one too many.
This meaning has pestered me ever since you left it. I finally understand. Took almost 10 years for it to click. Thank you.
