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

1. Movies - Where was Rain Man allowed to drive slowly?

5. Buzz - Charlton Heston has described that what would have to be pried from his "cold dead hands"?
6. Fads - What is Ali Landry better known as?
I know #'s 1, 2, and 5. No clue about the others, so I peeked at the answers.
Answers:

5. His gun
6. The Doritos Girl
