Family Album
I turn a page. At once, breathtakingly,
You hold me sadly, steadily in view.
Is it because you can't return to me,
Or is it that I'm journeying to you?
--Timothy Steele
I'm putting up this little epigram because it so beautifully illustrates both promotion and demotion, but more importantly, because it illustrates what Tim is preaching here and in his scholarly works, that meter and rhythm can be induced to dance together.
