Summary
More amazed than anything,
I took the perfectly black
stillborn kitten
with the one large eye
in the center of its small forehead
from the house cat’s bed
and buried it in a field
behind the house.I suppose I could have given it
to a museum,
I could have called the local
newspaper.But instead I took it out into the field
and opened the earth
and put it back
saying, it was real,
saying, life is infinitely inventive,
saying, what other amazements
lie in the dark seed of the earth, yes,I think I did right to go out alone
and give it back peacefully, and cover the place
with the reckless blossoms of weeds.____
Celebrimbor finds something special and wants to show it to Annatar.
