Of Boxes and Men. (Article) - 4/6/2014 6:54:58 AM
Good article, Aqkay. There is one box in the U.S. for mavericks. It's for those of us who refuse to be stuffed into the other boxes. We run around like chickens on crack, who won't shut up, and who love to shout "catch me if you can." It's dangerous and there is a lot of flak bursting all around. But I wouldn't have it any other way. Our motto is "testes ad muram' (balls to the wall!).

The fact that the English government has a House of Lords and a House of Commons as well as a King, is a result of a very long history of classification that is ingrained in the people.
Here in the United States, the primary classification is one of wealth. Certainly old money is classified better than new money, but anyone who can get a lot of money can get some respect by paying for it… It's kind of like getting sex by paying for it. We have our hierarchy, our matrix, of bosses and workers, that puts everybody in their place, their box. It's hard to break out of the matrix here just like it is to move from box to box in the UK.

Has sprung in all its glory. We don't get much around here, so I miss it. Oh there are signs, but they are not as pronounced in vivid as where the winters are harsh and unforgiving and plants need to be glorious just to be alive.

This is a Lovely poem about Spring and each of your verses described
how Naure began to blossom and bloom, it's as if magic is in the air.
Everything seems to come into light and reveal it's wonderful being
unto the world. This is a well-written poem.
