We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for." ~ Professor Keating (Robin Williams) in "Dead Poet's Society"

Spirit
Spirit A living flame Camped in mystery Rejects certainties, enclosures Of notions leading nowhere or elsewhere As the furrow keeps flowering A lightning flash inflames Illuminates Spirit
