G-d, (wo)Man, One
Sitting,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmSurrounded, encircled in an ambiguous hug.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmFeeling, knowing, floating in glorified clouds.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmStill, some can stand the non-understandable;
You never could.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmBut when I sit in here I don’t have to.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmNow the rain falls:
mmmmmmmmmmmmmIt takes some time for it to seep through;
But when it does,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmAnd the drops are zooming by me,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmMAGNIFIED,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmLike everything caught in a vortex with only me and,
You, the only one,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmSomehow rooted in place –
mmmmmmmmmmmmmEven the flying objects seem to bounce off,
mmmmmmmmmmmmmNot leaving so much as a streak.
Wonderful.

you can read this post three ways:
1. only the left column - only G-d.
2. only the right column - only wo/man.
3. both together - one.
(some poetic license [to kill?])
Jake, I have a special regards for you from Asher and Shani. I was learning with them the the other day, and we got into a discussion about last year. So im just passing on their "hello".
Tuesday we are doing Simchat Torah and a good bye party for mendy. We are expecting lots off ppl.
be well.
A beautiful piece Jake. I like the incorporation of the Sukkoth motif and its expression through soggy weather. What a brilliant way of seeing eating out in the rain...
and the year begins
