There Was Glory In Them Eggshells is about being told to sing "glory in eggshells deo" instead of "Gloria in Excelsis Deo” in my high school choir. The piece is about trying to understand one's own identity as a member of a group, whether on a soccer team, in a congregation, or at a festival, we all have role to play. Walt Whitman said "I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journeywork of the stars." The substitution of animals for human forms is about this commonality and equality of all life.
I found the Stairs at the Habitat for Humanity warehouse. The Rabbit has been poping up in my work for a little while now. They seem to be a marriage made in Bywater.
