Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 34I listened to his heart profusely,
For a beat like his was much to ponder

When I was twelve and he fourteen,
It took away his ambitions,
To study at Oxford - the pipe organ’s steam.

Everyday ChristiansI would imagine Adam Smith's invisible cooperative economic
self-and-Other-investment hand,
at least during Christian Sunday morning services,
looked and sounded and felt very much

as a badge of Earth-systemic re-cognition,
dignity through suffering
sacred Ego's over-capitalized absence
