what is to be done?
what will be done
what was to be done
what was and is to be, will be
to go ahead
to go back again
to get the work done
to teach for a living
to study
and to die
to return again, perhaps?
to take others with us
to wait
to wait some more
for the love to come
to wait till the rain
to wait for the child
and wait till it is all over
to wait till it is a disaster
to wait for the fire
to wait for the storm,
to wait for the ship,
to wait till the coming day
to wait to be loved
to wait for love
Jolene Armstrong
Jolene had always wanted to be a firefighter, but somehow ended up a professor of literature with a creative writing habit. She likes to collect odd, beautiful, shiny things and people. In her spare time, she assembles in images and words the shimmering ephemeral beauty that marks our collective existence on this blue planet. She lives and works in the boreal forest.
