“I want to sleep for a billion years. Stupendous issues are unfolding before our eyes, yet we are only specks of dust that have settled in the night on the map of the world.”
—Winston Churchill
“There’s no such thing as American history, only a frontier.”
—Don Draper
(After Emily Dickinson.)
How Mad - to Glimpse - your only You -
Yet only Grasp - my One -
How Sad - the Plant - that must Grow To -
But never Clasp - the Sun -
To feel quenched at a
cool glass of water brought to
someone else’s lips.
