    About this ebook

    Everyone
    Wants to be a member
    Simmering blind
    Display in our mind

    Mala beaded bracelets
    Blanket the pebbled sand
    He said it means grand
    Not just great
    Grand

    We ourselves
    Are a lot scarier
    Than our fears
    We set our sails
    And let someone steer

    Couple in love
    Independent star
    Baby being held up
    To give it a try

    Nine in the law of amendments
    I haven't learned enough to leave
    Or i have learned too much

      It’s soothing when the newly dead are way older than I am. This guy was 95. His picture—middle-aged, archaic glasses—freezes him somewhere around 1970. But even when they are my age and live in my town and share so many of my habits and interests tha

      Around me are fifty or so men, in whose company I will sit and be silent for ten days. I eye them discreetly, wondering who among them is going through a crisis. Who, like me, has a family. Who’s single, who’s been dumped, who’s poor or unhappy. Who’

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
