Portrait of Clara (as a chemist)
1 month ago
Meanwhile the mind, from pleasure less,
Withdraws into its happiness:
The mind, that ocean where each kind
Does straight its own resemblance find;
Yet it creates, transcending these,
Far other worlds, and other seas;
Annihilating all that's made
To a green thought in a green shade.
Andrew Marvell, "The Garden" 41-48

Yikes.
At least it was only the fence, not Dorothy, the roof, the barn...
But rebuilding fences is poetry fodder, is it not? Make the most of it!
Glad that it didn't hit anyone/thing but still...no fun rebuilding it.
Unless, as Dr. K. says, you make a poem out of it...
