MOMENTS
Strung together like your pearl neckless, touched by sunlight,
reflecting the light in your eyes as you gaze upon me, melting my hard shell into a pool, that holds the moonlight, inviting divinity in and demanding our attention 10'

Swans~ Sarah Teasdale
Night is over the park, and a few brave stars
Look on the lights that link it with chains of gold, The lake bears up their reflection in broken bars That seem too heavy for tremulous water to hold. We watch the swans that sleep in a shadowy place, And now and again one wakes and uplifts its head; How still you are- your gaze is on my face- We watch the swans and never a word is said |

Every country gets the circus it deserves. Spain gets bullfights. Italy gets the Catholic Church. America gets Hollywood.

Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place where it leads.

Clip Clop Clack ~ ani
a girl with the sun of her youth at her back
and the shadow of her womanhood before her on the stones is approaching with a delicate clip clop clack her sandals full of toes that i suppose are headed home  it's early in the evening and up and down the river people begin to gather pearls of laughter on a strand i thought solitude would save me it was pious it was grand but the monk that walked beside me just let go of my hand

"I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves. They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't."

First they came for the
socialists, and I did not speak out because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me. ~ Pastor Martin Niemoller

"Because we're a marginalized group, we end up having an external perspective on society. It gives us some freedom, some levity to rise above the basic mode of thought and contemplate outside of the system." ~ Alix Olson
