Linux is filled with playfulness
Take two programs that do about the same thing
one is called more
the other less
the one that does more is less

Please pass it on.

This is what I am seeking when I change out words: a change out of worlds. Stepping onto a new planet space-time, where we can each be heroes and heroines, where we can give our all away, wring out every last drop for truth, beauty, and good. Why? These are the profound ways we are there with one another for joy and grief and trial.

:- Doug.

I am pulled by this idea of poetry being about surprise, major surprise, not mere prettiness. I hesitate to call it beauty for there is profundity there as well. Beauty surprises as well. Truth, too.

:- Doug.

Not any surprise
says the poet—
a felt change of worlds

:- Doug.

All our life depends
so, you there—help it along
give it away—all!
