shelves for consolation... |
But God's own descent
Into flesh was meant
As a demonstration
That the supreme merit
Lay in risking spirit
In substantiation. |

but it takes a leap to make it happen. |
"...[I]t is inevitable that a bad fall comes to
the strong-willed man who is not strong enough to reach his own peak." |
~Norman Mailer,
Advertisements for Myself |
...which I see as meaning the only obstacle
to achieving my dreams is me. |
