Welcome

Your first year at a college or university marks the beginning of an intellectual and spiritual quest that will last a lifetime. It is, in many respects, a contemplative journey that requires the development of basic academic proficiencies. It also asks that you begin to discern your passions and deepen your sense of curiosity and wonder. Those of us who will serve as your advisors, mentors, and course instructors this year will accompany you on this journey. We will teach, in part, by revealing what we have experienced and learned along the way. The poems, aphorims, meditations, photographs, video clips, music, exercises, sketches, observations, calculations, and proposals on this blog are my way of sharing what I have come to know - as well as what I am discovering - as one such fellow traveler ...

Vermont Pilgrimage - Day 3


State Street

All cities have them
Main, Center, Monument, State
Names, locations change
Form, function, essence do not
Urban arteries:
Commerce, ideas, civic life
Course endlessly through
Store-lined sidewalks paved with dreams
Tomorrows' lifeblood
