“When despair for the world grows in me
And I wake in the night at the least sound
In fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
Rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.”

The Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry (1968)


Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming
Apologies to Wyoming
