cures pack a mean punch
when it starts to get blurry
you quaffed a bit much

This photo reminds me of the line from the old movie : "Come to the light, all are welcom, all are welcome..." Name that film. Are thos hegdes or a cave? Stil, sweet poem. Where are the anger poets. of insight and truth, though? Sigh! Where is Allen Ginsberg when you need him..." I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness , straving hysterical naked..." ? These are hard times and it's about time my fellow American start getting angry and forcing change! We're being rape by the new Robber Barons and the goverment and no one seems to mind. Sorry, just on my soap box, I've just finished reading the New York Times and the L.A. Times and I just want to say, "Be afraid, be very afraid."

Thank you for your kind words (and poem).
For those of you who are wondering what this picture is., it is a view of the Piranesi Perspective at the church of the Knights of Malta in Rome. It was made so that somebody looking through a half-inch hole on the door could see the dome of Saint Peter at the end of a green tunnel. The dome does not show on this picture but can be seen on further close-ups I have taken (as I found out that it wasn't easy to photograph through a peep hole).

miracles of light
kindness glimpsed … experienced by
unseen presences
