8/2: choosing the verbs

...for the cover of Heron Tree volume 7, one from each of the poems in the issue:  begin, cleave, connect, dissolve, eat, fill, find, fly, hear, hold, hum, lift, look, mourn, release, remain, rip, run, shine, snap, step, surround, trace, wait.

I always pick one word per poem for the front of each volume--most often I've done nouns, but I felt like action words were somehow better for now.
