    Tree

    It is foolish
    to let a young redwood
    grow next to a house.

    Even in this
    one lifetime,
    you will have to choose.

    That great calm being,
    this clutter of soup pots and books—

    Already the first branch-tips brush at the window.
    Softly, calmly, immensity taps at your life.

    [Jane Hirshfield]

    Mimesis

    My daughter wouldn’t hurt a spider
    That had nested
    Between her bicycle handles
    For two weeks
    She waited
    Until it left of its own accord

    If you tear down the web I said
    It will simply know
    This isn’t a place to call home
    And you’d get to go biking

    She said that’s how others
    Become refugees isn’t it ?

    What I Mean When I Say I'm Tired

    I don't mean I want to sleep.
    I mean I want to disappear for a while.
    To be rain on a stranger's roof.
    To be smoke rising from someone else's fire.
    I don’t want to die.
    But I do want to rest in a way
    the world has never allowed me.
    I don’t want comfort.
    I want quiet.
    I want the mercy of being unseen
    without being unloved.

    [K.E. Sermonté]

  5. Since today is #InternationalDayOfPeace, my #MusicForToday is (still)

    Yes, and how many years can some people exist
    Before they're allowed to be free?
    Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head
    And pretend that he just doesn't see?

    Yes, and how many ears must one man have
    Before he can hear people cry?
    Yes, and how many deaths will it take 'til he knows
    That too many people have died?

    Bob Dylan - Blowin' In the Wind
