The title comes from two quotes:
“Work as if you lived in the early days of a better nation.”—Alasdair Gray.
“If these are the early days of a better nation, there must be hope, and a hope of peace is as good as any, and far better than a hollow hoarding greed or the dry lies of an aweless god.”—Graydon Saunders
Love found inside, roams free to seek the light Of rev-elation. Sits up takes notice, revels in a play shadow and a stay Of real now, awakened, shaken, taken, mended, blended Into a new Life. A Wholly perception, to be shared, worn Together, spoken in words that agree and find new meanings, Old ones redefined and a New World emerges, is born fresh, A bloom opens.

ReplyDeleteLove found inside, roams free to seek the light
Of rev-elation.
Sits up takes notice, revels in a play shadow and a stay
Of real now, awakened, shaken, taken, mended, blended
Into a new Life. A Wholly perception, to be shared, worn
Together, spoken in words that agree and find new meanings,
Old ones redefined and a New World emerges, is born fresh,
A bloom opens.
