It's like we have to trade 6 hours of sunshine for 6 days of rain.
Luckily I have my internet up and running. Seriously, what did I do without you for so long interent?
But I was sitting next to a friend in class and she was showing me these "slenderman" videos. Marble Hornets and what not. Kind of creepy. Apparently these are a pretty big deal. That's another reason I set up a blog page. There seem to be quite a few of these stories on here. Some are a pretty decent read. I think I might be hooked!
But back to my first and most important passion..
| AFTER the torchlight red on sweaty faces | |
| After the frosty silence in the gardens | |
| After the agony in stony places | |
| The shouting and the crying | 325 |
| Prison and place and reverberation | |
| Of thunder of spring over distant mountains | |
| He who was living is now dead | |
| We who were living are now dying | |
| With a little patience | 330 |
| Here is no water but only rock | |
| Rock and no water and the sandy road | |
| The road winding above among the mountains | |
| Which are mountains of rock without water | |
| If there were water we should stop and drink | 335 |
| Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think | |
| Sweat is dry and feet are in the sand | |
| If there were only water amongst the rock | |
| Dead mountain mouth of carious teeth that cannot spit | |
| Here one can neither stand nor lie nor sit | 340 |
| There is not even silence in the mountains | |
| But dry sterile thunder without rain | |
| There is not even solitude in the mountains | |
| But red sullen faces sneer and snarl | |
| From doors of mudcracked houses If there were water | 345 |
| And no rock | |
| If there were rock | |
| And also water | |
| And water | |
| A spring | 350 |
| A pool among the rock | |
| If there were the sound of water only | |
| Not the cicada | |
| And dry grass singing | |
| But sound of water over a rock | 355 |
| Where the hermit-thrush sings in the pine trees | |
| Drip drop drip drop drop drop drop | |
| But there is no water | |
