stoic

said that of an old fisherman,
on a night of silvery silhouette:
“what we are and what we become
is not an agony of the past, but a
root of a tree, of papers where all
the great knowledge of the minds
are written truthfully to tell us
how to walk on bare feet without
hurting our soles from the thorns
and thistles.”
