Quotes about period, page 61
Having had to encounter single-handed during his period of eclipse many physical dangers, he was well aware of the most dangerous element common to them all: of the crushing, paralysing sense of human littleness, which is what really defeats a human struggling with natural forces, alone, far from the eyes of his fellows.

The first piece of art that I ever bought-when I could afford it-was a Warhol sketch from the period when he was just getting out of doing commercial work and more into art. It's a sketch of a young guy's face. I guess the gallery that I bought it from thought I would like it because the young guy kind of looked like James Dean.

Different environment
So long you were child, you were pardoned
Your late coming and unruly behavior condoned
This was golden period and you enjoyed
Now you are in youth and remain annoyed
The reason is well known and uncomfortable
You are confined and lands you in trouble
You are reminded of your growing age
You feel disheartened and find on the edge

You can do what you want to do, accomplish what you want to accomplish, attain any reasonable objective you may have in mind--not all of a sudden, perhaps not in one swift and sweeping act of achievement--but you can do it gradually, day by day and play by play, if you want to do it, if you work to do it, over a sufficiently long period of time.

The true winner
Do not worry about
Sinners
Sinners have been
Coming and going
They shall keep coming
For a short period
They may look to be
Victorious
At the end of the day
They shall never be the
Winners
One who lives
In peace and harmony
Love the humanity
Has a compassionate
Soul
Shall rule the world
Emerge
As the true winner

The Spider holds a Silver Ball
The spider holds a Silver Ball
In unperceived Hands--
And dancing softly to Himself
His Yarn of Pearl--unwinds--
He plies from Nought to Nought--
In unsubstantial Trade--
Supplants our Tapestries with His--
In half the period--
An Hour to rear supreme
His Continents of Light--
Then dangle from the Housewife's Broom--
His Boundaries--forgot--

This Kind of Devoted Discipline
Many do not understand,
This kind of devoted discipline.
Some don't understand the benefits of discipline,
Period.
And it is difficult for them,
To connect success with a drive that is focused.
Some people believe luck is involved,
That comes to assist achievement.
And not intention...or,
The sweat of hard work and sleepless nights.

Facsimile
One fringe of image
disconnected, a knife within,
in a trench
battle still continues between you
and yourself
for ending of animal. Did it bleed?
Home was still faraway
a secured period.
Bouncing euphoria.
blunted and bailed out
paper thin memory
of broken mirror.
O Unseen,
take a bow,
lightning for a requiem

A Woman With Double Loss
During menstruation period
due to hormonal influence,
some women become depressed and different.
Usually she is stingy and thrifty.
She would buy useless things with big money.
It is discovered in a scientific study.
From uterus, she loses blood.
From her purse, she loses buck.
During menstruation, she becomes a crazy shopping nut.

Don't Take It
Don’t take my heart
And play with it
Like a toy
Don’t take my heart
And leave it alone
Like an empty room
Don’t take my heart
And tease it
Like a dog with a treat
Don’t take my heart
And break it
Like a glass cup
Don’t take my heart
And say it’s worthless
Like a rock
-You know what
Don’t take my heart
Period
