Of all ridiculous things the most ridiculous seems to me, to be busy — to be a man who is brisk about his food and his work.
~ Soren Kierkegaard in EITHER/OR: A FRAGMENT OF LIFE
for a brief moment early spring rain ceases,
the sun breaks through
grey sky...
threads of gold
thin enough to pierce the forest,
glitter on dewdrops...
bows to brilliance,
where everything arrogant
takes off its shoes
to stand on holy ground.
