There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

Did not sleep last night. Not a wink

Finished an enormous project for work

Had a suprema napolitana for lunch

Got caught in the rain

Saw a string quartet play Piazzola in a living room

Got laid

Posted some opinions on RM

Passin out

Sometimes on days when I have sex, I think about how fucking lonely and depressed I was at 16-17, and how I wish I knew that some day I’d be 47 and having days where I had sex, pizza, and saw one of my favorite bands in concert all in the same day and my head didn’t explode because it wasn’t anywhere near the first time that happened. I have bad days, weeks, and even months, but man, life is fucking subtly amazing pretty goddam frequently.

It's maybe not an enlightened view but sex, food and music are really the best things in the world. We are basic creatures

I’m not intending to refute this at all, and absolutely relate. I was personally stuck at the bold part for a long time in what I experienced as a very self-centered existence; now i view that aforementioned holy triumvirate as rationed fuel for a life of service to my family and community.

In other words, I eat good food, have great sex, and enjoy the hell out of my audio system, but it’s all in measured doses that don’t leave me feeling gluttonous at the expense of others.

Just thinking/sharing, not really trying to judge others if that’s not where you’re at.

I'm also being a bit facetious by boiling our sense of contentedness down to our basest desires but yeah

[96583UP]

So many folks seem unable to exist without alcohol and talking about the distant past. They are all currently at my Labor Day party. Let’s drink and talk about the present fuckers

grey day here. Im about to drink my third coffee of the morning and then take my dog out for a while.

My sis is going back to the south, and i kinda realized how little time we spent together these days. Im thinking about going to see her on november maybe.

[daft twat]

Start year 25 of teaching tomorrow. I forgot to call my folks today. I feel bad about that.

[Peeps]

good luck Daft. hope you get to give a kid detention in the first week so you can really set the tone for the school year

went golfing yesterday. was having my usually outting when on one par 5 i duffed my wedge and landed about 20 feet off the green and about 5 inches into the rough around the apron


was irritated about the duff so i grabbed my putter. sank the putt like a boss for a total of about 50 feet to salvage a bogey

Snatching bogey from the jaws of triple bogey. That's a major win in my book.

Hell, just getting out on the course is a win to be honest.

I need to make time to play more golf. I used to.

[Bammer]

I’m pretty much off golf completely

[pepperwhiteMFC]

I have a brand new Paradym driver I’ve used once. I needed a break to lose a few losers that I was playing with. Who you golf with makes a difference.
