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

Doonesbury
If you didn't read Doonesbury last Sunday, please check it out. Trudeau hit the nail on its liberal head with this one. Larry King asked Hillary if the Democrats wouldn't have done the same thing if the President had been Republican when Clinton (my President) was hounded by Ken Starr. She told him no because they aren't very good at that kind of thing and have other issues on their minds. I definitely agree with her. What I don't understand is why more people aren't upset by the lies going on now and this horrible economy. We liberals need to find a candidate who will rise from the ashes and win. Getting it together is apparently not possible for us. It's like Will Rogers said, "I don't belong to an organized political party. I'm a Democrat." So true!! Maybe we all have AADD.
