You Begin

by Margaret Atwood

You begin this way:

this is your hand,

this is your eye,

that is a fish, blue and flat

on the paper, almost

the shape of an eye.

This is your mouth, this is an O

or a moon, whichever

you like. This is yellow.

x

Outside the window

is the rain, green

because it is summer, and beyond that

the trees and then the world,

which is round and has only

the colors of these nine crayons.

x

This is the world, which is fuller

and more difficult to learn than I have said.

You are right to smudge it that way

with the red and then

the orange: the world burns.

x

Once you have learned these words

you will learn that there are more

words than you can ever learn.

The word hand floats above your hand

like a small cloud over a lake.

The word hand anchors

your hand to this table,

your hand is a warm stone

I hold between two words.

x

This is your hand, these are my hands, this is the world,

which is round but not flat and has more colors

than we can see.

x

It begins, it has an end,

this is what you will

come back to, this is your hand.

x

The end

x

Read these lines from Shakespeare's "Sonnet 100.”

Where art thou, Muse, that thou forget'st so long
To speak of that which gives thee all thy might?
Spend'st thou thy fury on some worthless song,
Darkening thy power to lend base subjects light?
Return, forgetful Muse, and straight redeem
In gentle numbers time so idly spent;
Sing to the ear that doth thy lays esteem
And gives thy pen both skill and argument.
Rise, resty Muse, my love's sweet face survey,
If Time have any wrinkle graven there;
If any, be a satire to decay,
And make Time's spoils despised every where.
Give my love fame faster than Time wastes life;
So thou prevent'st his scythe and crooked knife.

Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.

Then I heard about a summer job through my uncle who was a dentist. He introduced me to one of his patients who had a business selling audio-visual equipment for big light and music shows. He was looking for some new, better equipment. I spent all summer when I was sixteen building high-powered light-controlled systems that synchronized many Kodak projectors at once, as many as sixty-four to 120 of them, and reduced the cumbersome machines from the size of a refrigerator to the size of a toaster. Not only was this invention used in theaters, but it was sold to the Museum of Natural History and the New York Planetarium to project views of the heavens on the ceiling. To make this new device I had bought every kind of electrical equipment I could find, and still had money left over.
