Truth is, we are simpler than we think, or can

We are more together
than we know, how else could we keep on discovering
we are more together than we thought?
You are the known way leading always to the unknown,
and you are the known place to which the unknown is always
leading me back. More blessed in you than I know…
~Wendell Berry from “The Country of Marriage”
How is it that the chickens I dispatched last Saturday
know more of life than me?
