My Bookselves Tell Me

[earthlingsfba]

My Bookshelves Tells Me ...

What cops know -
faces of The Enemy,
maledicta, body language,
one fairy story too many.

We hold these truths:
Andersen's fairy tales,
Crazy wisdom,
The sense of beauty.

Mathematics -
for practical use,
Light - the flying circus
of physics.

Angry women, unlikely liberators.
Witches and sorcerers
trance dance,
ecstatic body postures.

Ever since Darwin,
connections,
bird by bird,
wonderful life.
