they are the most direct portals to the only forever there is.”

I was reading Michael Mc Donald’s take on Sandy Recovery from the New Yorker Magazine (Jan 7,2013):
It’s the fragile, agile networks that make a difference …
It’s the horizontal relationships like the ones we’re building that create security on the ground,
not the hierarchical institutions.
AGILE
Oliver is not yet two.
He’s fragile.
But agile.
Poppa says:
“You’re tired, Buddy.”
He reclines.
Snug
Horizontal.
Fills the step.
Sleeps now.
Climbs later.
Agile.
Wood now.
Pillow later.
Agile.
Grins
A satisfied smile.
Agile.
