denying the chisel

resisting the master
the marble defiant
denying the chisel
the work of the sculpture
the clay rebelling
leaving the wheel
refusing the potter
the touch of love
the hand of teaching
denying the chisel
the guiding, tempering
avoiding the forge
the hammer, the anvil
refusing to bend
to conform to the teaching
going their own way
sure on their own
