Is I and Thou possible?

Is it ever possible to have an I and Thou conversation? Is meaningful possible, or is it only a settling, an unsatisfying mingling of words, notions, dreams, and old fights? Are we doomed to keep trying and never getting through to one another? Or is possible possible? Or, are we best served to be alert to surprise, giving up our infantile play at control?

Footprints in the Windsm # 2196–a beer, a tear, a roaring laugh

Footprints in the Windsm # 2196

Some dirt, a bruise
a beer, a tear, a roaring laugh
o so profound is this
—and all of this—
the bottom of it all
we hid away
our aspirations
may we yet find
the essence of our lives
breathed upon
yes, breathed upon
