Walking Between Water



Survival = Anger x Imagination.

Today I am walking between water, two parts hydrogen, one part oxygen, and the energy expelled is named Forgiveness.

Sherman Alexie.

(Drawn from The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven. I elided two lines refering to life and struggle on the reservation, in order to demonstrate the universal reach of Alexie's work. This passage is typical of the koanic images he often uses to convey concepts the discursive mind might be unwilling or unable to grasp.)
