no poem today. i've worn myself out watching parts of my country being turned into a land i do not recognize, not by katrina, not by the levees breaking, but by my government in washinton in their slow and seemingly callous response. sad and angry and fearful doesn't begin to touch my feelings. s



so, today, a quote,

"We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit."

e.e. cummings
