Gently, Like Water, Cracking Stone

"It is from numberless, diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a person stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, that person sends forth a tiny ripple of hope and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."

- Robert F. Kennedy University of Capetown South Africa 1966


Gently,
Like Water,
Cracking Stone.


The droplet finds the granite's fault
and changes the face of the mountain
with persistence and patience

Man, that joke just ain't funny.
The locker room was silent
as he closed the door behind him

Gently,

like water

cracking stone
