Katie showed me

this poem, and I think it is wonderful, so I am sharing it with all of you (Marianela, Babz)!

Vertigo

Mind led body
to the edge of a precipice.
They stared in desire
at the naked abyss.
If you love me, said mind,
take that step into silence.
If you love me, said body,
turn and exist.

-Anne Stevenson

I just keep reading it, again and again. It it delicious.
