Still Standing
walking about
reaching,
I wonder at the theology that labels pride a sin.
And a bathos opposing Nature, and Grace.
( There are many paths to awe. )
All of them begin with a fundamental assertion, a movement out. And then,
at the end, they break. And we are fragmented.
Hemingway's old man, "destroyed, but not beaten" or, is it the other way around? The Cartesian consolation, cogito, ergo sum: a weakness.
let me be salt, I cannot help but turn and look
god love a woman
god love the earth
we are almost there
