No Handwriting Which Mimics Your Own

It's never enough to try and look and try to see and try to feel. The distraction is in listening and responding and acting your age. There's tragedy there. The machine is beautiful. The buffaloes are wild. And where may such creatures live? How? A poem is not a method of persuasion. A knife is not an instrument for feeding. There is a flaw. Between the motive and the language. Between decision and action. The hills are soft with fire. The rage is all about us.
