smoke and rock


"The more we try to live in the world of words, 
the more we feel isolated and alone, 
the more all the joy
and liveliness of things
is exchanged for mere certainty
and security."

who would be secure?


"Who would be secure?
every and any slave.

No free spirit ever dreamed of  'security' --
or,
if he did, 
he laughed;

and lived to shame his dream."
