"Tapestry"
Song lyrics, Tapestry (1970)
Context: Every thread of creation is held in position
By still other strands of things living.
In an earthly tapestry hung from the skyline
Of smouldering cities so gray and so vulgar,
As not to be satisfied with their own negativity
But needing to touch all the living as well.
W. Douglas P. Hill (1884–1962) British Indologist
