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.

Still from the pop culture edition .... any suggestions for other editions? I have the regular ones as well as a few others, but I'd have to walk to the back room to get the titles. Perhaps I'll add them later on.

2. MOVIE - What producer of hits like Flashdance, Top Gun, and Crimson Tide died in 1996 of heart failure attributed to drug use? (don't know him)
3. TV - What villainess desperately wanted to get her hands on Freddie, the magical talking gold flute? (some of you will know this)
4. TV - Which M*A*S*H spin-off featured Colonel Potter, Klinger, and Father Mulcahy?
5. MUSIC - Who scored a Top 100 hit in 1984 with the single "Make My Day"?
6. MUSIC - What is it that Debbie Gibson just can't shake?
7. S&G - What pitcher claims he had a hangover when he pitched his perfect game in 1998?
8. S&G - What Cleveland Indian was suspended for 10 games in 1994 for playing with a corked bat?
9. BUZZ - What rock band did writer/director Cameron Crowe's wife co-found?
10. BUZZ - What comedian set himself on fire while experimenting with illegal substances?
