Pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo. Shovel them under and let me work -- I am the grass; I cover all ~ Sandburg ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Two years, ten years, and the passengers ask the conduct What is this where are we now? I am the grass. Let me work ~ Excerpt "A Terrible Love for War" ~ James Hillman You who govern public affairs, what need have you to employ punishments? I love virtue, and the people will be virtuous. The virtues of a superior man are like the wind; the virtues of a common man are like the grass; the grass, when the wind passes over it, bends.” ~ Page 156 ~ Walden - Henry David Thoreau

An open door says, “Come in.” A shut door says, “Who are you?” Shadows and ghosts go through shut doors. If a door is shut and you want it shut, why open it? If a door is open and you want it open, why shut it? Doors forget but only doors know what it is doors forget. ~ "Doors" ~ Carl Sandburg

The silence of the morning, See the night slur into dawn, Hear the slowI shall foot it Down the roadway in the dusk, Where shapes of hunger wander And the fugitives of pain go by. I shall foot it In great winds arise Where tall trees flank the way And shoulder toward the sky. The broken boulders by the road Shall not commemorate my ruin. Regret shall be the gravel under foot. I shall watch for Slim birds swift of wing That go where wind and ranks of thunder Drive the wild processionals of rain. The dust of the traveled road Shall touch my hands and face. "THE ROAD AND THE END " ~ Carl Sandburg
