Collective and Individual Creativity Makes the World Go 'Round

The pianist who sits
With his chin resting on his breast
Like a bird contemplating flight

The dancer poised to take the next step 
Across the vast shining forest beneath her. 

The sailor who raises his hand
And salutes the wind

These, and many others, comprise
This world of ours. 

So wide, large, brimming
So colourful, gleeful, fleeting
Infinite possibilities 

Unfolding, unrolling, fluttering like a sail 
A bolt of fabric, a leaf, the tailcoats of a dancer
A swallow's fresh wings 

In with the new, out with the old
In with the old, out with the new

Just another experimental poem. It doesn't feel like it ticks to me. Oh well. Keep trying, I suppose! Poetry is so difficult, because a large part of it is how it is read. 
PEOPLE, IT'S TIME TO PANIC.

A Post to the God Of Coolness On a Hot Day

I love looking in the refrigerator when it's full, and being thankful that we have so much food. I love looking in the refrigerator when it's empty because it's so nice and clean and white. Basically, I just love to look in the refrigerator.
