Just for the record,

one coffee spoon =

0.0001 of a peck or
0.0752 of a cubic inch or
4 dashes or
19 drops or
2 pinches (but it did not indicate where to pinch)

but… are the pajamas covered in monkeys and hand made by a dear friend?

Once there was this kid who
Got into an accident and couldn’t come to school
But when he finally came back
His hair had turned from black into bright white
He said that it was from when
The cars had smashed so hard…..

Strange to know nothing, never to be sure
Of what is true or right or real,
But forced to qualify or so I feel,
Or Well, it does seem so:
Someone must know.

Strange to be ignorant of the way things work:
Their skill at finding what they need,
Their sense of shape, and punctual spread of seed,
And willingness to change;
Yes, it is strange,

Even to wear such knowledge – for our flesh
Surrounds us with its own decisions –
And yet spend all our life on imprecisions,
That when we start to die
Have no idea why.

Not you. You’re on sabbatical.

“I’ve watched the summer evenings pass by
I’ve heard the rattle in my bronchi …”
