The girl from my high school who wrote the line, “What will we do
when we have forgotten how to dance?”
went to Harvard for law school.

She was what you would call
“a smart cookie.”

No Swan So Fine


"No water so still as the

dead fountains of Versailles." No swan,

with swart blind look askance

and gondoliering legs, so fine

as chintz china one with fawn-

brown eyes and toothed gold

collar on to show whose bird it was.

Lodged in the Louis Fifteenth

candelabrum-tree of cockscomb-

tinted buttons, dahlias,

sea-urchins, and everlastings,

it perches on the branching foam

of polished sculptured

flowers–at ease and tall. The king is dead.

Since I have quit smoking (it’s been almost a month), I have become interested in
Ayurvedic methods to reduce toxins in the body.

Ayurveda is an alternate form of health care for me, and according to
the Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico
Ayurveda is Sanskrit for “the science of life.”
It originated in India and is known as
“the mother of all healing.”

I’m not going into the whole spiel now, but the principles
of many natural healing systems, such as Homeopathy
and Polarity Therapy have their roots in Ayurveda.

As I said, I’ve become interested in Ayurveda
to reduce the side effects of quitting smoking, which means
irritability, irrationality, vindictiveness, and other malicious traits
that can also derive from the excess consumption of alcohol, coffee,
or bad food.

These traits are obviously bad because
they do not contribute to the bliss of existence
as my friend Robyn would say.

(Stay with me, guys, I know this is a challenge to your cynicism).

Here is what I have discovered:

When you eliminate toxins from your body
you restore your constitutional balance
strengthen immune system
become resistant to illness
reverse negative effects of stress
and slow the aging process.

You also
enhance self-reliance, strength, energy, vitality and mental clarity
and bring about deep relaxation and a sense of well-being.

And how is it that you eliminate toxins?

Water, friends, water…
(amongst other things.)
