A Word on Statistics by Wislawa Szymborska

Out of every hundred people, those who always know better: fifty two. Unsure of every step: almost all the rest. Ready to help, if it doesm’t take long: forty nine. Always good, because they cannot be otherwise: four–well, maybe five. Able to admire without envy: eighteen. Led to error by youth (which passes): sixty, plus […]

Work by Charles Lamb

Who first invented work, and bound the free And holyday-rejoicing spirit down To the ever-haunting importunity Of business in the green fields, and the town– To plough, loom, anvil, spade–and oh! most sad To that dry drudgery at the desk’s dead wood?

You need not leave your room by Franz Kafka

You need not leave your room. Remain seated at your table and listen. You need not even listen; simply wait; just be quiet, still, solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked. It has no choice; it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.

You Were Made For This by Clarissa Pinkola Estes

One of the most calming and powerful actions you can do to intervene in a stormy world is to stand up and show your soul. Soul on deck shines like gold in dark times. The light of the soul throws sparks, can send up flares, builds signal fires, causes proper matters to catch fire. To […]

Natural Selections, edited by Frank Hall

A recording of all of these poems is available on request. Table of Contents: Robert Frost: The […]
