A machine puts the glue into bottles and children squeeze the bottles to get the glue out and stick bits of paper onto cards. Glue gets on the children's hands and the children eat the glue. And the children become the horse.

For the fierce curve of our lives is moving again to the depths out of sight, in the deep living heart.
