“The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato.”
–Alfred North Whitehead

Three Stanzas Remembered

I remember more
With each passing glance,
With every standing trance
That stalls me on my way.

I am moved by that which gives
All faces their romance,
And frozen by the stare
That makes me stay.

But time cannot stand
The memory of more
Than what it makes unpleasant
For me to understand.
