this was a comment left on my poem "This Forum is Locked", by Philip F De Pinto:

"Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 07/28/04 at 06:08 AM

there is an old indian saying and as I am an old indian, I will retell it o'er the plains with smoke neath my blankets, that there is nill more important than life and nature and to have all critical orifices open when speech makers commence to speeching and not be so quick to follow or lead or to say yea or nay, that is what the brakes are for or the engines unchecked, will run wild and if you search among the living or the graves you will see that there are no labels there but what used to be real flesh and bones. I know a real embrace when I feel one and when someone says I love you, can I trust the telling of it or the show? ..."

i found this to be so wise and profound, this morning... i am grateful and and listening... it would do the human race good to hear these words as well...
