Mad Mirrors - Part C (35) Poem by Raquel Angel Nagler

QUOTE: 'You have to live life not according to each day, but according to its depth' -R.M. Rilke
QUOTE: 'You can't adapt the world to yourself. You adapt yourself to the world: to 'what is'.' - Buddhism

1. Again and again
We build a home
As tall, as deep
As our days can contain.

2. Days come,
Each with its own height,
Each with its own depth.
Each day we build a new home,
A new floor of small certainties,
A new roof of solitude.
