Prayer for Revolutionary Love

That a woman not ask a man to leave meaningful work to
follow her.
That a man not ask a woman to leave meaningful work to
follow him.

That no one try to put Eros in bondage.
But that no one put a cudgel in the hands of Eros.

That our loyalty to one another and our loyalty to our work
not be set in false conflict.

That our love for each other give us love for each other's work.
That our love for each other's work give us love for one another.

That our love for each other's work give us love for one another.
That our love for each other give us love for each other's work.

That our love for each other, if need be,
give way to absence. And the unknown.

That we endure absence, if need be,
without losing our love for each other.
Without closing our doors to the unknown.

-- Denise Levertov

Well darlin what would you know about it?
I don't know.
Say it again.
What?
Say it again. I don't know.
I don't know.
That's good. You need to practice that. It sounds good on you.

-- Cormac McCarthy, from No Country For Old Men

Joke of the Day - Tuesday, July 26, 2005 @ WDRM 102.1:

"The first thing I do in the morning is get my poetry book and read a poem.
That is, going from bed to verse!"
