I think a blog is a catalyst for a number of possible kinds of writing besides being its own medium.

Sometimes a sign or a quote is simply interesting by itself and does not require anything beyond being framed on a page.

We thought we were done with these things but we were wrong. We thought, because we had power, we had wisdom.

Books are not men and yet they are alive.

When my own writing needs a perk, I open Zukofsky and read from "A" - particularly sections "22" and "23." It can be opaque, but I love the intensity.

Our earth is but a small star in a great universe. Yet of it we can make, if we choose, a planet unvexxed by war, untroubled by hunger or fear, undivided by senseless distinctions of race, color or theory.
