What am I seeing?
As I dropped out in 1967 I remember the folks
that moved so fast that they could not see.
That was my perception at the time.
They are a different group now but they are still
there.
They run around saying that, "Someday they will
get to that or after I retire I'll deal with that."

on places where they are at.
This makes sense and it does not make sense.
Laurel tries to correct this all. Putting words
in places where our teachers told us too.
Please do not throw words onto the blackboard.
The words we throw are meant for peace, of mind,
on earth, for the soul.

I used to weep for the earth and the amount of
pain that it endures.
I would cry in my heart for hours on end.

a place all martyrs are at.
I realized that to correct that pain that I would
have to stand up and die for what I believed in.
I did not want to die so quickly.
I wanted the earth to move slower so that each
moment that I lived I would try to correct what was before my eyes.
And as the earth moved more slowly, vivid details
were seen and I began to wonder.
Who could possibly create such technology and
beauty in our bodies?
What am I seeing?
