i looked this up because i was remembering it wrong.
i thought it was "do not go gentle into that dark night" and "rage against the dying of the moon" for some reason.
that was a little confusing because the moon has a rebirth and i was wondering what the author's point was.
Out of the night that covers me
Black as the pit from pole to pole
I thank whatever gods there be
for my unconquerable soul.
It matters not how strait the gate
How charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul.
That can be an ode to anyone wrongfully imprisoned, especially solitary confinement which is so common today.

"curse, bless me with your fierce tears"? Interesting.
I see that as a commentary on what a "father" could do if he chose. Men usually only shed tears when emotions are high, mix that with wisdom that one should expect from a "father" "fierce tears" would either be a strong reprimand or affirmation. Both would be heartfelt and therefore worthy of note.

Definately a fighting poem. No surrender there.

Oh, now that I can read it...my offhand remark kind of fits! Ok, done slinking. YES!

The text didn't appear when I first viewed it, I thought JD was leading us in a group impromptu poem.
OK, slinking away now...

The wise prepare both for struggle and flight
since i last posted here, some wonderful blessings have come my way!
my oldest son who i shunned in 1981 and who has since cut me out of his life....has finally "come around" and we are making some real headway towards being in each other's lives again.
he has restored an old 1933 ford jalopy and asked me if i wanted to go for a ride in it with him!
On the eve of my 67th birthday...a little reflection that I just HAD to share with those who know me here on JWD. It's always nice to share the GOOD news in our lives!
Happy Birthday to you!
Glad to see those "worldly" folks are treating you well. ;-)
i put this in the humor section even though it is real.. i must have laughed for an hour!!!.

cow farts collected in plastic tank for global warming study by rupert neate last updated: 9:55pm bst 09/07/2008scientists are examining cow farts and burps in a novel bid to combat global warming.
On the serious side though, the developed world has to start eating less meat.
The picture is hilarious, but as the text shows the science has merit. Feeding farm raised anything to animals is a very inefficient way of feeding humankind. Greenhouse gasses are just one of the concerns scientists are examining.
so.... i'm thinking.
i'm thinking cuz i was at my shrink's today... and i'm cleaning... those 2 things get my brain working and i was thinking..... i am (was) a jw (ex) who is a housewife, "at home mom".
could there possibly be anyone else in the whole friggin world who has ever used their brain less???
even that tribe they found in the amazon
I would suspect they use their brains quite a bit. Just imagine the knowledge of herbology alone that must be committed to memory so it's not lost.
I know that dosen't help...but think about it, no writing and so many skills that are vital to maintain their precarious existence that need to be learned and then passed down to future generations.
