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

Complaints
I'm tired of just anything or anyone being news. For example, that runaway bride person. Who cares except for the police officers and others who searched for her when they needed to be doing real work that mattered. I don't even want to know about her and her freakish eyes. It's horrible enough that people go on those shows like Jerry Springer, Montel, and Maury without the actual news reporters dragging out all kinds of people to tell us things we don't need to know about themselves. It's too much.
Let's have some quality movies and TV shows that aren't remakes that didn't need to be remade and that are actually entertaining. There are some good writers who can't get a deal because the studios play it safe (they think) and won't take a chance on anything that doesn't appeal to their target audience: kids. We older people buy things, too.
Tom Cruise. Enough said.
I have more that I'll bitch about later.
