dither
in the unschooled emptiness of never even trying

a simple task, to occupy my mind

So perhaps one reason why the Occupy Wall Street folks are not handing out a giant list o' policy demands is because frankly, we already know what we should be doing.  OWS is just reminding us to wake up and do it already.

What will happen, I wonder, when the world runs out of shrinkwrap?

faith

Faith is a very effective technology for maintaining emotional equilibrium even when perceived facts warrant otherwise. This might sound like a cynically sarcastic criticism, but it's actually a flat-out compliment. And that in turn might sound like a cynically utilitarian observation. There is, however, a whole bunch of heft beyond that, too.

Try, for example, replacing "faith" here with "optimism": the same core idea comes through. No matter what you call it---nor whether you bring a big glob of theology along with it or not---here is a tougher help than most: a generosity towards the future.

not sure,

i just say what i wanna say
trip on the rhythm
and
flicker for a moment
wondering past disciplines
that my patience could never reach
so far
so good
