the prometheans

gathered into a circle,
for pleasant evenings of debate,
for life sharing moments,
for comaradarie;
looking for fire in the belly.

looking in all directions,
in myth and history,
in culture and paradigm,
inside ourselves;
finding everywhere glowing coals.

finding the value of simmering,
over philosophies and psychologies,
over the limitation of words,
over cups of coffee;
searching out new balances.

searching out the connotations,
of our times,
of our lives,
of the images;
gathered into fire.
a book discussion group started that winter at church that led to a long
fellowship of 9 men. This celebrated the ending of our first study.
