MIDDLESPACE - the space between

Haunted by detailed and vivid adventure dreams
Inescapable warrens of mystery and chaos
Wake plans muted by inevitable attentions
Prickly porcupine thistle sticking like magnets to exposed iron boxes
Two hours is never enough sleep time
For parents of prodigious progeny
But all is forgiven upon sunrises when
We muster all we have remaining and continue our hike into
The woods of the imagination
Evacuation plans never so un-smooth
Dream detectives never so coolly behaved
Amid impending boom, doom and gloom
Again the world is safe from evildoers and idiots


"There isn't really much else that [Ralph Nader and] the Greens can hope to achieve. Whatever their utopian platforms may say about renewable energy, corporate responsibility, diversity rainbows or frogs in top hats, the ruin of the Democratic Party is their only feasible aim. The first Democrats to be taken down, if the tiny party's plans are effective, will be the most progressive."
