You were my first reader on Medium. Forever grateful. When reading this poem I admired the clear expression of mixed feelings, Eric (Is it?). Life just seems to be an endless stream of contradictions waiting to jump us. "A real book is not one that we read, but one that reads us. The center that I cannot find is known to my unconscious mind." WH Auden.
