even with dsl or cable
with T1, T2, or T3,
you can't get across
the river if a damn
dam's in the way

A lifeline, thru the emptiness,
that's what this place was, thru the miles,
where I threw my words across the divide,
and they echoed back...
and the journey was sustained.

Went to sleep in Nevada dust,
woke up to a cool reflection,
the road within, and without,
equally as clear...

Hallelujah! Allons!

Never made it to Sedona,

lost among orange goblins,
and red rock insanity....

My clown face which depicts
a journey to the carnival is
not ready to show.
The clown has scared me so.
I am frightend of his face.

Wireman emailed me... asked me to post this Robert Service poem for him. I guess the server problems, slow access, must be frustrating! It is to me. Apologies to all. We will do some optimization after the jam is over.

Comfort

Say! You've struck a heap of trouble --
Bust in business, lost your wife;
No one cares a cent about you,
You don't care a cent for life;
Hard luck has of hope bereft you,
Health is failing, wish you'd die --
Why, you've still the sunshine left you
And the big, blue sky.

Sky so blue it makes you wonder
If it's heaven shining through;
Earth so smiling 'way out yonder,
Sun so bright it dazzles you;
Birds a-singing, flowers a-flinging
All their fragrance on the breeze;
Dancing shadows, green, still meadows --
Don't you mope, you've still got these.

These, and none can take them from you;
These, and none can weigh their worth.
What! you're tired and broke and beaten? --
Why, you're rich -- you've got the earth!
Yes, if you're a tramp in tatters,
While the blue sky bends above
You've got nearly all that matters --
You've got God, and God is love.

Robert W. Service
