"A plate cracks....certain peas roll off"

“The Bridge At San Luis Rey”

All the slathering, lawyering intellects

haven’t figured it out.

“It took a Niponized bit of the Sixth Avenue

El to tell him” (eecummings)

It doesn’t matter how intelligent you are

if you can’t see properly.

It doesn’t matter what opinions you have

if they are based on faulty information.

Man is an expert at manipulating to survive,

but not so good at acknowledging the truth,

because sometimes the truth hurts.

The truth is never negative, even it hurts.

Compromise is the devil in disguise.
