"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms



"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet

The Emptying...

(Pacem In Terris)
I want to make love to
Your mind

I want to warm my body with
Your imagination

Exploring all the parts of your truth
Entering your thoughts
Mimicking the churning sea
With echoing memories
Ecstatic swirling ideas

Until

We are emptied into each other
One being in creative energy

Only quieted
By the climax
Of our

Art
