A human being - what is a human being? Everything and nothing. Through the power of thought it can mirror everything it experiences. Through memory and knowledge it becomes a microcosm, carrying the world within itself. A mirror of things, a mirror of facts. Each human being becomes a little universe within the universe!

One of my first jobs was at the Boston Globe. I worked in the sports department six months a year. When I was ready to graduate, the sports editor gave me a job as a schoolboy sports writer.

They wanted me to play more sports because they were acutely sensitive to their children being one hundred percent American, and they believed that all Americans played sports and loved sports.

Don't sell yourself short because without that you can't go far in life because after sports the only thing you know is sports and you can't do anything else with that.

Hollow Vessel
House just waits
eternal silence
embues spirit
within empty microcosm.
Awaits noise
denoting human occupation
chaos run rampant within.
Embracing which embraces not.
Watching which watches not.
Hearing all said which hears not.
Character
stamps judgement
upon physical
face of frame.

In The Summer Sun
We are burning in the summer sun
In water sports, we are having fun
In the summer vacation
We are in action
Playing many games
And learning many gems
Needed to decorate
This short life
With love and friendship
Courtesy and relationship
Life is a fun
When with a friend
Life is a race and we run
When a foe is behind
Or fiends all around
Live life with happiness abound
This month is June
We are burning in the summer sun
In water sports, we are having fun

It's thrilling. There's birth and death and frustration and victory in raising horses. It's like a little microcosm of life is built into the short lives of these creatures.

As a kid I was fascinated with sports, and I loved sports more than anything else. The first books I read were about sports, like books about Baseball Joe, as one baseball hero was called.

To Those Who Love Footy
To those who love footy a man of renown
The legend of sport from the little bush town
Footballers of his calibre hard to be found
On Grand Final day he was best on ground
But Tim the young artist one who doesn't like football
Says legends of sport don't interest him at all
To him the renowned locally raised footy player seems quite ordinary
Though many with him on that would disagree
He says sports fans elite sports people over-rate
That they are not worthy of the title of great
The greats of human history that historians recall
Were not sports people or never played football
And he says of the locally raised football legend I'm not putting him down
When I say he's an ordinary bloke from an ordinary town.

No one knows toward what center human things are going to gravitate in the near future, and hence the life of the world has become scandalously provisional. Everything that today is done in public and in private — even in one's inner conscience — is provisional, the only exception being certain portions of certain sciences. He will be a wise man who puts no trust in all that is proclaimed, upheld, essayed, and lauded at the present day. All that will disappear as quickly as it came. All of it, from the mania for physical sports (the mania, not the sports themselves) to political violence; from "new art" to sun-baths at idiotic fashionable watering-places. Nothing of all that has any roots; it is all pure invention, in the bad sense of the word, which makes it equivalent to fickle caprice. It is not a creation based on the solid substratum of life; it is not a genuine impulse or need. In a word, from the point of view of life it is false. We are in presence of the contradiction of a style of living which cultivates sincerity and is at the same time a fraud. There is truth only in an existence which feels its acts as irrevocably necessary.

Duo
What a coincidence!
Today Dara Singh
Died and today
Was my children's
Sports Day!
Reminds me
Once again
That sports
Would go on
So would life
And these stalwarts
Who are well-renowned
Wrestlers can win every
Championship in life,
And remain defending
Champions for life...
But when it comes to
Grappling with death
They simply don't
Stand a chance...
Once again a
Stark reminder
That man has a
Long way to go
When it comes to
Wrestling with death
And winning the ultimate
Trophy in the final duel
With the unrelenting duo
- Senility and Mortality -

Giorgio
Illiteracy is the hindrance to the clock of the individual,
But the love to all has no class;
And to be literate is to be intellectually empowered!
A microcosm,
Knowing begins with knowledge;
And i will be with you on this love.
Giorgio! Awake to life and see me through;
For life is like drinking water with the backs of our hands.

Running Away From Problems
Running away from problems she is
While she is driving
Her sports car
In the highway
This is a perfect day
To go on a ride
In her sports car
