serenity please
While not the little girl in the meadow and also not (thankfully) the shedevil in a straitjacket, today is about understanding the things I do not know.
Literary muses, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change; (like the bitterness I feel towards Ezra Pound at this moment)
courage to change the things I can; (like reading what other people have said about Pound so that I might not feel as vehement about his poetry)
and wisdom to know the difference.
today's word: gyre -- as in Yeats. as in his symbol of history's repeated patterns
