I read the original draft of this and thought it was great, but the revised version is even better. Somehow it seems more succinct. My favourite is the second verse; it has that simple, straightforward beauty which I love in literature.
"We believe that we invent symbols. The truth is that they invent us; we are their creatures, shaped by their hard, defining edges." - Gene Wolfe
