it is an honest wind
that blows the grass
across these tombs
the sun at noon
knows not leaf
nor lie
geese above
V their way
across a sky
and tell of time
for stars
and time for hope
there is truth
to every absence
beyond despair

with a coffee and watching The Mystery of Agatha Christie with David Suchet. Typical unconventional start to the week. Elsewhere in this blog I have spoken about how people search for info each day and that is often the main focus of daily activities. The Information. Different for each person and reflecting the person’s taste, interests, and sensibility. We are defined, better understood, and appreciated by the information we seek. That info is us, who we are, and what we are about.
In his quest for understanding, enlightenment, and appreciation, Suchet turns up a number of interesting tidbits that suggest the inner life of the author, her sensibility, and her work. He gets enough info and confirmations to say that he confidently knows her better by the end of the program. Interestingly, he says that he is glad he never met her because she might have expressed her disapproval of a performance and that would have affected his obviously sensitive actor’s vanity about his approach to Poirot.

The great misassumption is believing that other people will be here forever whenever we want to see or talk with them at our convenience.
Their last thoughts were of work
the morning and afternoon drives
on crammed city roads
and the screens they watched
in-between in downtown Katzville.
For just one serene morning
there was this much peace
and solitude for two
looking at the lake, pondering
a life and home here.
Rocks and i.d. plaques are found along edge of North Campus, beside Saskatchewan Drive.
