Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 11/11/09 at 02:27 AM Not being a determinist, I believe God has given us a choice. Ours to make. Thought provoking indeed! (Did you mean teeming rather than teaming? Either could fit I suppose.) |
Posted by Glenn Currier on 11/11/09 at 03:05 AM Although I love the whole of this poem, the third stanza seems to hit home the most. I hear in that fourth verse an echo of Gabriel Marcel and other Existential philosophers. And finally, I hate to say it, but I am not nearly the optimist I used to be and that last verse reflects a place I have gone in recent weeks as i observe and contemplate what is happening at home and abroad. Thanks for this jewel, Tony. |
