chasm

 




















across the in-between,

build a bridge

above the unforeseen,

recognize the cloudlit sun

the sunless day

the moonless sleep

loneliness within company

friends within enemies

betrayal without violence

a fair trade, a good price;

exchange and yet -

do not leave anything behind.

There's a Wall-Mart in Terrace.

Terrace just started recycling, and found a company was burning stuff and charging recycling fees.

I wonder if any of the trees around here were planted by someone I know.

This is such a good poem, not b/c I like the poem itself, but b/c the ideas that it tackles are so interesting and fundamental to any outcome of the world.

There is a balance that this poem touches, the holy balance, or the inevitable balance.

What's going on with you Sky, very sage, but very rage.

Heh.

Maybe not, I mean the rage part, but it sounded good.

And just to be sure, the poem is awesome.

Sorry poem if I didn't sound constructive.

That's a great photo, it makes me think of some of Bill Eakin's pics.

This poem is about relationships, I think. 10 years together ought to teach you something!
