The Waking
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I feel my fate in what I cannot fear.
I learn by going where I cannot go.
We think by feeling. What is there to know?
I hear my being dance from ear to ear.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Of those so close beside me, which are you?
God bless the Ground! I shall walk softly there,
And learn by going where I have to go.
Light takes the Tree, but who can tell us how?
The lowly worm climbs up a winding stair;
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
Great Nature has another thing to do
To you and me; so take the lively air,
And, lovely, learn by going where to go.
This shaking keeps me steady. I should know.
What falls away is always. And is near.
I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.
I learn by going where I have to go.
--Theodore Roethke

Seminar
I went to a screenwriting seminar today at NorthStar Studios in Nashville. It's an impressive facility. We had a tour of the building which was fascinating. I had no idea such a place was around here. The highlight of the day was learning about it and considering possibilities of my next career. This kind of place I could easily visualize Brian's working.
The guy who led the seminar is Robert Franke. It was informative and helpful and gave me more ideas now for how to structure my story. Information about the seminar is here.
It was really good to get out and do something like this today. I'm kind of tired but had a good day.
