By Bill Ayres Put in charge of so much money I should have been happy. I should have taken a chance. But I didn’t buy flour and make bread There were already too many bakeries. To buy wool and use it to make tents, I would have had to learn to sew. Others bought and sold. They started banks. They opened stores. The smell of clay filled my nostrils as I dug the hole, making a place to hide the treasure, digging it deeper than it had to be, not knowing why, not realizing what I buried was myself. Bill Ayres teaches Sunday school to five year olds. They ask good questions. Related work on Foreshadow:
