Quoted In The Grove:
The truth isn’t always beauty, but the hunger for it is.
~Nadine Gordimer
Between truth and the search for truth, I opt for the second.
~Bernard Berenson
Truth is mighty and will prevail. There is nothing the matter with this, except that it ain’t so.
~Mark Twain
EndQuote:
literature: “It’s the best way of telling the truth; it’s a process of producing grand, beautiful, well-ordered lies that tell more truth than any assemblage of facts. Beyond that … [it’s] delight in, and play with, language; also, a curiously intimate way of communicating with people whom you will never meet.”

Prewritten: climate, corridor
~BarTalk:
Family
Crisscrossing corridors
Slamming doors open and shut
Climate changes cloud formations
Fragrant in the hallways
Fresh from the kitchen
Beats with a heart bigger than God
~
ditzy ditty
a couple lapse, apocalypse
words become preposterous
climate grows disastrous
this chaos can’t be good for us
nor the kids coming after us
corridors fill used as graves
until there’s no one left to save
except survivors
~
3 Cheers 4 Beer
Climate: trumped up fears
Declare: the enemy nears
Empire dream not yet o’er
Forges corridors to war
Prey-n-Pray 4 no hangover
~
history again
corridors walked take time to travel
doors, the four walls’ passage to unravel
climate of the time disheveled and baffled
kids get bet against their futures raffled
crime’s the time spent under the gavel
contemplating cell walls new home and hovel
~
5-7-5 x 3
question of climate
corridor to extinction
second chance or not
~
sudden climate change
airless corridor white light
is that all there is
~
climb eight mountains twice
the corps adores achievers
those who kill and die
