Today, as I moved through the day, I thought
about the high pace of change lately, it has
at times hurt, simply hurt, too much, too fast,
too sudden, but then, as the laundry tumbled
and I sat on a red brick wall eating lunch from
the Thai restaurant down the street I realized
without all the change, without all that turmoil, without
that strong and unpredictable current, I never
would have landed here, this wall, this day, these
wonderful coconut rice balls
