[Image ID: The poem “One Source of Bad Information”, by Robert Bly. There’s a boy in you about three years old who hasn’t learned a thing for thirty Thousand Years. Sometime it’s a girl. The child had to make up its mind How to save you from death. He said things like: “Stay home. Avoid elevators. Eat only elk.” You live with this child, but you don’t know it. You’re in the office, yes, but live with this boy At night. He’s uninformed, but he does want To save your life. And he has. Because of this boy You survived a lot. He’s got six big ideas. Five don’t work. Right now he’s repeating them to you.

You pour orange juice into a glass. The glass can only hold so much orange juice. But as juice is poured from the much larger carton into the much smaller glass, there is a stream that connects the glass-juice to the carton-juice, and in that moment the glass and the carton are holding the total amount of juice in tandem; almost as if, for a breath, they and the air between them become a singular container. When I am filled with love (orange juice), I am the glass.
