FP Presents -> People Think Lawyers are Soooo Smart (Shared By: Zdenek Hruza)

Tis Late 
 
Of course the tall stringy woman

draped in a crocheted string-shawl 
 
selling single red carnations
 
coned in newsprint the ones
 
she got at the cemetery
 
and resells with a god bless you
 
for a dollar that same woman 
 
who thirty years ago
 
was a graduate student
 
in playwriting who can and will
 
recite "At the round earth's
 
imagined corners, blow--"
 
announces silently amidst her louder
 
announcements that the experiment
 
some amateurs mixed of
 
white fizzing democracy
 
with smoky purple capitalism
 
has failed. We already knew that.
 
Her madness is my madness
 
and this is my flower in a cone
 
of waste paper I stole from
 
someone's more authentic grief
 
but I will not bless you
 
as I have no spirit of commerce
 
and no returning customers
 
and do not as so many must
 
actually beg for my bread. It is another
 
accident of the lab explosion
 
that while most died and others lost legs
 
some of us are only vaguely queasy
 
at least for now 
 
and of course mad conveniently mad
 
necessarily mad because 
 
"tis late to ask for pardon" and
 
we were so carefully schooled 
 
in false hope schooled
 
like the parrot who crooks her tongue
 
like a dirty finger
 
repeating what her flat bright eyes deny.

About this Poem:
 

"In a New England city where I once lived, there is a well-known local 'character,' a former graduate student, now street person, who recites poetry from the canon. I put a Donne sonnet in her mouth for this poem's purposes, because Donne is one of my touchstones and because, as I hope is obvious from the poem, she and I have so much in common. We are all of us only one or two steps away from the street."

Daily Inspiration - Daily Quote ... Jonathan Lockwood Huie

February 28, 2013

Insights for living with joy and purpose


Dear Ferry Meed

 
Give Honest and Sincere Appreciation.
- Dale Carnegie

At the beginning of a relationship
we are attracted to the other person because
we think they are sexy, smart, funny -
whatever it is that we find appealing.
But very quickly, the focus of the relationship
turns to whether we feel appreciated.
If we don't feel appreciated, we don't feel loved.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Appreciation is a wonderful thing.
It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.
- Voltaire

There is more hunger for love and appreciation
in this world than for bread.
- Mother Teresa

Beginning today, treat everyone you meet
as if they were going to be dead by midnight.
Extend to them all the care,
kindness and understanding you can muster,
and do with no thought of any reward.
Your life will never be the same again.
- Og Mandino


Consider the contrast between the warmth of expressing sincere appreciation and the sinkhole of needing approval. Let others know how grateful you are for their kindness (when it is true), but never depend upon others to validate your own worth.
