plus and minus 0

The perennial politics -- power for security.
But understand:  no degree of power in a random universe
can guarantee any kind of security beyond the here and now.
We need to learn to be our own defender,
to grow our will and strength where we live.
 
 
 
What we need is not hard work, but targeted work --
what we need to get the project done well.
 
 
 
Apart, not a part of a people
No history but my own
(and, of course, the stories that become cultural metaphors)
If I ask:  what contribution can I make?
I realize, I have none to accept, to contribute to
