Abstract

Yesterday Sal Taylor Kydd (bio) I came infrom the garden,my hands dirty,my nails, soiled,and I wept. For I'd been lost,in the brambles,in the sweetnow of doing,and had forgottenfor a moment,that the worldwas breaking,and the peoplewere dying. Then the memory came,like a wavecrashing over me,and I couldn'tbreathefor thinking,of the worldthat is breaking,and the peoplethat are dying. But I returnedto the garden,to the sweetnow of doing,and I breathed the air,and I smelled the earth,and I lost myselfin the brambles.
