Ant McWatt comments:
Marsha,
Do you think this idiocy is partly due their general lack of time for
contemplation? In other words. they are usuallly too busy with (and too
close to) the political process to be reading philosophy etc?
That they should "disappear in the woods" (like SA) for 6 or 12 months every
so often?

Isn't this type of poem usually written by someone after they have travelled
the journey of personal development that Dave was discussing?
Best wishes,
Anthony
