Gravity (excerpt) by Galway Kinnell

"As long as two kvetches remain alive,because inside each is self-hatred so hardenednot even nonexistence can abide them,as long as the hummingbird strikesthe air seventy-four times per second,as long as the mound of earth remains heapedbeside the rectangular hole waiting to be filled,gravity cannot be said to impose its will."
