"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

Shadows


this will take a long time 
the letting in of the light
fidelity on the rays 
comfort with the wind 
blowing the wrinkled fabric of life 
slowly and safely 



it will be a long time 
forever almost
till another tomorrow
far beyond today
when the shadows disappear
