"It still may come as a surprise to some that 'rape free' is even a possibility."
"...it’s as if the burnouts of the 1960s split into two tribes where one decided to surf and hike and ended up in Santa Cruz & Marin, while the others who liked to ski and hike ended up in Manitou Springs & Vail." —Phil B via
"XXXVI
West and away the wheels of darkness roll,
Day's beamy banner up the east is borne,
Spectres and fears, the nightmare and her foal,
Drown in the golden deluge of the morn.
But over sea and continent from sight
Safe to the Indies has the earth conveyed
The vast and moon-eclipsing cone of night,
Her towering foolscap of eternal shade.
See, in mid heaven the sun is mounted; hark,
The belfries tingle to the noonday chime.
'Tis silent, and the subterranean dark
Has crossed the nadir, and begins to climb."
—AE Housman, Last Poems
