My father came in and said, "That d-mn Mike just sh-t a pile!"
The memory, more than fifty years old, always brings a smile.

obviously without shame, but also without guile.

I am more than tranverse myelitis,
although its effects have sometimes filled me with dread,
intruding into my daily efforts, frustrating me.
Still, it cannot disconnect my identity
in Christ, in whom I am Starward-Led.

Christ expects to love this ancient fraternity
of His own making and gathering; of which freemasonry
has made its own, infernal but attractive, mockery.

where the quantum and gravity

and energy becomes light
and absolutely everything
