Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Enga mellom Fjella




Sentinel

         Marked
                   as if you own me
I bow before the Bitterroots
and just like you
                   my rocky soil, my withered grass
                   lays prey to the empty sky.

I took the on-line "What famous novel are you?" test and came up P&P. Ack... I'd just finished reading it. Many of my friends were coming up "To Kill A Mockingbird". And if you are a crusader that makes perfect sense! I also feel for injustice... just not as keenly. I am capable (at my better moments) of seeing the other side. But then,,, so was Atticus.

I did like Eliza in P&P. More piss and vinegar than sweet Jane and not silly like Lydia. She and Darcy made a good match... or at least, an interesting one. The dysfunction of her parents was more realistic though.

ME:

I know I should start planning my next trip. It really takes time to get it right. Last trip was too last minute and a plan B was not in place when I needed it most.

I read a bit about Japan (the Alps) last night. Need to resurrect my other past dreams as well.

Need to check plane prices so I'm not too shocked when the time comes.

Until then... might just stay home and chill. Get back into a routine and focus on other issues that get pushed to the side when traveling.

Maybe being more practical (with eyes open) like Eliza would help!
