Late Arrival
J E have been too long in coming to this place. E have climbed too many paths leading to unavoidable summits and have leoked out over too much waste land, E have worn cynicism as men once wore armour, hiding our hearts under its dented brightness. E have stayed too much on the beaches, congregated too long on the roadways as though by our continuing together we could stave off the ultimate aloneless. UT in the end all that we have within us is all that we have. E have been too long in coming to this place. MAN himselt is the inevitable, his the prolonged, the persistent resurrection and everything is simplified in the last understanding. . Isobel Andrews
