    "Laika
    Lies by me."
    ~ Calvin

    "Space technology is still
    In its infancy.

    To criticize the shuttle and station
    Because our best efforts
    Have fallen short of the goals
    We have set

    Would be like criticizing the early aviation pioneers
    Because they did not understand,
    Then, how to build transcontinental aircraft.

    In this business, our goal
    Is to push the frontiers of technology,
    To learn what we can by doing so,
    And then move on.

    And that is what we will do.
    Thank you all for your time and attention."

    "The aluminum ladder shivered slightly,
    like a highstrung youthful steed,
    as he trusted his weight to it.

    One step,
    two, then
    the third.

    The rope nestled dryly around his neck;
    the ladder trembled as he reached up
    and behind to slip the knot tighter,
    snug against what seemed the correct spot.

    Now the ladder was swinging violently
    from side to side; the agitated blood of its jockey
    was flailing it toward the hurdle,
    where it lifted,

    as he had foreseen,
    at the most delicate urging,

    and fell away.

    Clyde heard the clatter
    and thump.

    What he had not expected was the burning,
    as though a hot rasp were being pulled
    up through his esophagus,

    and the way the angles of wood and carpet and wallpaper
    whirled, whirled

    so widely

    it seemed for a second he had sprouted eyes
    in the back of his head.

    Then a redness in his overstuffed skull
    was followed by blackness,

    giving way,

    with the change of a single letter,

    to blankness."

  4. "The Second
    Coming ~

    Turning and turning in the widening gyre
    The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood ~ dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all convictions, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.

    Surely some revelation is at hand;
    Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
    The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
    When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
    Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
    A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
    A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
    Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
    Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
    The darkness drops again; but now I know
    That twenty centuries of stony sleep
    Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
    And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
    Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?"
    ~ W. B. Yeats

    "Just in case you thought there was no distinction
    between representation and reality
    there is death.

    Just in case you thought experience
    and the representation of experience melted into one another,
    death provides a structural principle
    separating the two.
    .. . . See the difference."

    Dr. Cynthia Pfeffer, MD:

    I left an emergency telephone message today with you:
    I need my ADD medication, I have no other physician,
    and I am in dangerous withdrawal.

    I take 15 mg/day Dexadrine brand version, tablets IR.

    I have taken, as you know, ADD meds for 6 years.

    Please let me know you can provide needed emergency
    coverage for me, as I am physically ill, and it is
    important that I do not discontinue my ADD medication,
    or I will likely become dangerously despondent.

    Thank you.

    My father committed suicide,
    And suffered from substance abuse.

    My mother died from a demyelinating disease,
    And suffered cancer
    And suffered from substance abuse.

    Both suffered depression
    And cognitive impairment from those ravaging diseases.

    Both of my parents were dead
    By the time I turned 17.

    I am an only child.
    I am also a homosexual.
    My surviving family disowned me,
    When I was 21 years old.

    I survived most of that.
    But I am not surviving the effects of abuse

    Quoted message said:

    From 2 therapists.

    I have ADHD.
    I have sought treatment for that, too.

    I presently have no ADHD physician,
    And that is dangerous.

    I ran out of medication today,
    And that is dangerous.

    I do not do drink alcohol.
    I do not smoke.
    I do not recreational drugs.

    I am afraid of mental healthcare professionals
    After what happened to me this past year.

    I turned 50 last week.
    I got no calls or cards,
    But I did get one electronic card from an online friend.

    This is my life.
    This is real.
    This is my biological reality.

    My name is Virginia H. Hooper.

    "Within The Borderlands of Dementia,
    Near the corner of Berkley, Boston, South
    End, in days of yore, there lived a richly endowed Gentleman
    By the name of John Martin, in one of the magnetic fields
    Near, on Chandler Street, lived Kelsey Fleming,
    In whose house,

    Stood a very curious object,
    A large moor ~ stone rock, shaped by nature so much
    Like an ancient Gothic church with a Watch Tower,
    That it was known among the country's people
    For miles round by the name of

    The Pixilated Cathedral,
    As well, was an etching by Artaud ~

    The Theatre of Madness.

    And three blocks farther over, toward the north,
    Lived Twittering
