” When I think back
On all the crap I learned in high school
It’s a wonder
I can think at all
And though my lack of education
Hasn’t hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall ”

All the Hemispheres
Leave the familiar for a while.
Let your senses and bodies stretch out
Like a welcomed season
Onto the meadows and shores and hills.
Open up to the Roof.
Make a new water-mark on your excitement
And love.
Like a blooming night flower,
Bestow your vital fragrance of happiness
And giving
Upon our intimate assembly.
Change rooms in your mind for a day.
All the hemispheres in existence
Lie beside an equator
In your heart.
Greet Yourself
In your thousand other forms
As you mount the hidden tide and travel
Back home.
All the hemispheres in heaven
Are sitting around a fire
Chatting
While stitching themselves together
Into the Great Circle inside of
You.

I just broke up a fight on the subway because an old man rushed in before the door closed and a woman, who was standing in the doorway, started to yell at him for almost touching her child. Her first words were “sir if you touch my child this wil not be good for you” of course he talked right back. He is a New Yorker. All he said was “maam, if you want to protect your child do not stand in the doorway of the train.” And then she went off on him. Calling him a stupid old man over and over, telling him how wrong he is, etc. This went on for two subway stops before I was just done with it. I just got back from a normal, aka incredibly sad, visit with my grandma. I moped my way onto the train. I had mascara running down my eyes and I dont care about the stick this woman has up her ass and needs to take it out on this old man. She was acting like this guy was out to get her and her kid, and the whole subway had to witness it.
All I said was “please stop. This is pointless. we are in new york. people bump into eachother, he didnt mean it. it happens. everyone on this subway has other things going on in their life. please just stop.” the old man looked at me and the woman looked at me and told me to shut up. but the fight ended. and thats all i cared about.
