COUNTRY

At the very corner of this old map is a country I long for. It is the country of apples, hills, lazy rivers, sour wine, and love. Unfortunately a huge spider has spun its web over it, and with sticky saliva has closed the toll gates of dreams.

It is always like that: an angel with a fiery sword, a spider, and conscience.

(Zbigniew Herbert)

so goshdarn many of those dang élites!

    I’m betting you’ve already seen and cursor-fondled the “Palin as President Interactive Experience”—http://www.palinaspresident.us/

    Election-obsessed narrator: Been there, fondled that. Although, pace Ms. Cregg, it freaks me out!
