Half World Chance

More From James Hillman

Lips half-willing in a doorway. lips half-singing at a window. eyes half-dreaming in the walls. feet half-dancing in a kitchen. even the clocks half-yawn the hours and the farmers make half-answers.

I don't like that whole "art should challenge you" thing. because i don't feel like art actually does challenge you. i was a semiotics major at brown, and there's this idea that stories are better, books are better, and movies are better if they cocked you off your axis and you were completely disoriented and you'd really have to rethink everything.

In my prayers, i want to say: lord, don’t be far from me, and also don’t come too close. let me contemplate the stars on the texture of your cloth, but don’t unveil your face to me. allow me to hear the rivers that you send running, but lord! lord! don’t allow me hearing your voice

In prayer the lips ne'er act the winning part, without the sweet concurrence of the heart.
