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

Yuck
There's a commercial that shows a couple driving a car with someone we later learn are their PARENTS in the back seat making out. It's so irritating that I don't even care what they are advertising. Tell me, are there many things more annoying than the sound of other people kissing? All that smacking and slurping grossed me out in that commercial. The whole thing is inappropriate and creepy. Not as much though as that commercial with little kids, yes young children around seven or so, sharing a sandwich while Marvin Gaye sang "Let's Get It On" in the background. Now that was just wrong!
