***********************************

myself is sculptor of
your body’s idiom:
the musician of your wrists;
the poet who is afraid
only to mistranslate
a rhythm in your hair...
-E.E. Cummings

I think it's going to take me a minute to really appreciate it though.

time to save the world, where in the world is all the time?

Hill Harper's Letters to a Young Brother as a gift so I guess I'll be digging into that. I tackle books one at a time and very slowly because I tend to read parts over and over and might even venture off into my own writing process, so this should last until the leaves turn. Hell, I'm still re-reading all my old Calvin & Hobbes collections..lol
