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

Trivia Quiz
from the Pop Culture edition
1. In Beetlejuice, what book turns up on Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin's coffee table after their untimely demise? (Brian and I met Larry Wilson the screenwriter at a seminar we attended. He's funny and quirky, just as you'd imagine. He liked us, too.)
2. Whose 1978 variety show had a troupe that included Michael Keaton and David Letterman? (I don't remember this at all)
3. What was the name of the male member of the Carpenters?
4. What city's streets were used to name the spaces in Monopoly?
5. Who did George Harrison's first wife leave him for? (Sadly, I know this. It's the kind of information that clutters my mind)
6. What bar activity means "empty orchestra" in Japanese?
Most of these I happened to know. Yet I can't seem to remember the names of some students I had just two weeks ago.
