This clumsy mark between, above your eyes recalls you to those dark and bitter places where day stumbles after empty day, and light itself dawns stark and staring. Take hope, this dust you must reclaim may yet ground you, grant you purchase for your final thrust, upward and out, along the teetering edge of vertigo, then far beyond. J.

Cleveland, Ohio I like the line, 'this dust you must reclaim may yet grind you, -- hope I'm not some of the dust grinding the Lord down. (I might be--I can be kind of wearing). ha. |
