Favorite Quote:
"That the powerful play goes and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?"


Float through impermanent streets.

Pass the houses and the people

who fall like dead leaves.

 

Walk and listen to the indistinguishable

sounds of pain and love.

Hear no difference from tragedy.


The author's comments:

The lack of living life, purely for the enjoyment of living, is the worst human tragedy. It occurs constantly, yet it is so often overlooked. Security now trumps passion.
