the raw materials and the art
Our world consists in
The raw materials and the art
:- Doug.

The world is not against us
the world is for us
Too often we fight her
:- Doug.
The solid foundation
of all there is
is built on what seems ephemeral
—what we perceive and how we re-construct—
they only seem gossamer because
they have no ready handles
the stitches are so fine
and common among us
:- Doug.
