if the earth would sit still for a moment

		<description><![CDATA[	Portland, 1968
	You stand as rocks stand
to which the sea reaches
in transparent waves of longing;
they are marred, finally;
everything fixed is marred.
And the sea triumphs,
like all that is false,
all that is fluent and womanly.
From behind, a lens
opens for your body. Why
should you turn? It doesn&#8217;t matter
who the witness is,
for whom you are suffering,
for whom you are standing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	This is way past topical, but just wanted to repost some &#8220;deep thoughts&#8221;
from another blog of mine:
	1. The whole Obama chimp cartoon fiasco has me wondering:
In the alternate universe(s) where Hilary is now President, is there a
similar brouhaha where a cartoonist makes a stimulus jab by portraying
Hilary as the octo-mom? Perhaps where the babies are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Singapore mostly lives up to its rep as a vast series of malls that happen
to have UN representation.
	I mean, if you&#8217;ve been anywhere in Asia, it&#8217;s not exotic at all.  Just little
things that remind you that you&#8217;re not in a mall in the US&#8211; the cashiers
take and hand back your credit card and receipts [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	This is a blog entry I wrote (elsewhere) the day after the 2004 election.
It is, I think, worth revisiting today:
	
Even if &#8220;we&#8221; had won the election, our battles would not be over.
They would be easier yes, but not over.  Either way, there is always
more to do.  So let&#8217;s get back to doing it.

		<description><![CDATA[	I was greeted at the airport by students from the school&#8217;s &#8220;Welcoming Committee.&#8221;  They were very friendly and helpful.  They explained the bus and rail system, and gave advice on where I should live. 
	Then they offered me a piece of gum.
	At first I declined.  Gum is illegal in Singapore, right?

	Why the need for an alternative? Well, AAA isn&#8217;t just a benign organization that picks you up in emergencies and gets you hotel discounts. They do a lot [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	So.  Today, via Stumbleupon, I discovered this amazing, mind-blowing video that tilt-shifts and time-lapses a monster truck show rally (and puts it to a rockin&#8217; beat, to boot).  
	Since I&#8217;m taking a video editing class for fun this semester, I was ravenously curious to discover how it was done (I mean, I know [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Prison Song
	
The skin ripples over my body like moon-wooed water,
rearing to escape me. Where would it find another
animal as naked as this one it hates to over?
Once it told me what was happening outside,
who was attacking, who caressing, and what the air
was doing to feed or freeze me. Now I wake up
dark at night, in [...]]]></description>

	Especially:
	What is clearer is that global investors have finally lost faith in the US&#8217;s debt-binged financial status quo and that a new, less US-centric era of global capitalism is dawning.
	&#8230;The hard truth America is now so desperately trying to avoid is that US economic, financial and human resources - once [...]]]></description>
