when i was young, i… / rarely has the same answer / as, today i am…
in the afternoon . only a green vine is seen . clinging to the pole
comfort can be found . in some surprising places . with certain trade offs
a question is asked . like a photograph; framing . only what’s needed
looking to the past . as sole guide, leads to planning . based on assumptions
comparing what is . to what is known to be true . paints the big picture
within each framework exists a reality that may not be true
the laws of motion . operate differently . between barriers
ideas that bridge . past and present, can never . become obsolete
water, as does life . carries memories downstream . they should be good ones
