General Education as Opposed to Specific


General Education
(aka: gened)

         Tell all the truth but tell it slant,
         Success in circuit lies,
         Too bright for our infirm delight
         The truth's superb surprise;

         As lightning to the children eased
         With explanation kind,
         The truth must dazzle gradually
         Or every man be blind.
(E.D.)

Turtle-ing: what I do while Rabbit runs:
turtle-ing on the dock of the bay, say,
watching the tide roll away

Position & Velocity & Nouns &  Verbing
&  Ruminating & GetRdone & Brood &
Take Care of Business: Home Economy
& also  Housekeeping— Turtles & Rabbits
& team spirit. Worthy opposition.
         Imagine.  Put it in play.     

                Turtle-ing:

Shamelessness allows guilt to provoke
without confusion anxiety like mattresses
over a pea

I want. Hardly caring. Shameless, thank
God. Guilty as hell no doubt.

Calling. Vocation. Horn in the flesh.

Massive success in learning
not-as-the-world-rewards
called virtue by failure is it’s
own gold metal.

From outside in, Gödel’s  theorem occasionally
on bombastic wings of a dove informs & inspires
my necessarily insufficient home land security
systems.

Invasion devoutly desired.  Or like BB Wolf—
huffs and puffs  to blow my house down and
not by the hairs of my chinny chin chins.
Same deal. Varieties of religious experience.

(Send in some clowns. There ought to be clowns)
