We seek to know the hope that taught the hawk to fly. We ask no pledge of love ' We do not seek to know a day of rest from pain, or sleep so sound that dreams shall not recall the ache.

The buildings were our first sight of Berea.

I have seen you looking at me from baby- hood to adolescence and now that I am al- most a woman you think that your time is near to see in me, your only daughter, all the things you never had a chance to be. When you were my age. Mama, you were on a boat coming to America. You had run from your village to Warsaw, and at Brussels you had caught an old American liner on its last run. You and a little brother and sister, a disheartened father and a sick mother. Like thousands of immigrants be- fore you and after you, you crowded to the rail of your ship and stretched out your hand to the Statue of Liberty. There on Ellis Island two older brothers met you and took you to a small farm in New Jersey. You were smelling freedom air for the first time in your life, Memo, and you felt it was enough to keep you alive forever. But I was born into freedom air. You told me that, and oil these years I have been waiting for the same kind of revelation you hod when you put your foot on this country. It hasn ' t come, and today I am writing you to ask if there is something you forgot to teach me, or if there is actually nothing new under the sun for me. When I was a child I used to say, When I grow up I will do this, or When I am big this will happen to me. I expected each new experience to be a revelation, and when it wasn ' t, I thought the next one would be. I am fortunate. I hove had a chance to do everything. I have roller skated and I have studied Latin. I hove been to a senior prom, and I have grubbed potatoes before the sun came up. I have had close friends. I hove been loved, and I have been well taken care of. I like my vegetables and my milk and I like to brush my teeth. I don ' t wont to smoke and I don ' t want to drink and I don ' t want to hang out at roodhouses. You brought me up well. Mama, but today I am asking you for something more. Today I am suspended between c oring and not caring. You must do something more for me. I have come away from home and in another peoples ' church I have looked for what they call the universality of man. They have made their religion a very personal thing and I have expected to find it shining out of each one of them separately. Now that it has passed. Mama, I can tell you that if I had found it shining out of each one of them separately, I would hove made it my own, at the risk of never seeing you again. It would have been a fine thing, don ' t you think, to have had it shining out of each one of them separately, but I am so glad that I did not find it, for then, like the leader in their church, I would have sent a plague of missionaries upon the world, not in the name of God, but in the name of Western culture. Today, although I am almost senseless, there is one thing I do know, and it is that I am of my own people. On this Sunday morning with my head bowed to receive what they call a ' benediction, ' Mama, I am sick for the words of my own, and I know that I con never leave again the reality of who I am. Mama, they hove here teachers, and I hove listened to them carefully. Once I thought I heard one of them saying the things I needed to hear, and day after day and month after month, year after year I have gone bock to hear her, hoping that eoch doy she would soy more. But each day she has said only what she said in the beginning and that is no longer new for me. It was never new under the sun. I do everything she soys, Momo. I hold the brush so, and I mix the paints so, and I hold the paper first as she holds it, and then as my own spirit dic- tates, because she has said that is the way it must be. And she tells me that I have come into her house with on open mind and on open heart and she admires my intel- ligence, but I have not learned, she tells me, what she has tried to teach me. As if I didn ' t know. If I had learned, Momo, I would not be writing you today. And they have here, Mama, people who would be my friends. I would tell you that some of them ore, and I will carry them with me wherever I go. One is like me, and she helps me to take all this out of me and say it to you so that I may receive on answer quick- ly. A nd one is not like me, and she gives me the hope that I will come out of this. And one is a poet and he eclipses us all. And one is a scientist, and only he knows what it is all about. Isn ' t it funny, Mama — words are the only things I know, and they reveal nothing to me. My words or anybody else ' s words. Nor symbols. Nor words and symbols together. Somewhere I read, abstractions to a lonely eye, grow intimate as hedge and stone — Democracy, to boys who die, wears shorts and eats on ice cream cone. I held on to it for a few days — until the boys came home, like they soy. But Mama, the boys are the people who were here before they left and the people who ore here now that they have returned. They have come back with noth- ing new under the sun. Certainly, Mama, the mountains are noth- ing new under the sun. Nor the trees, nor the fields, nor the little rocks. Heavens, Mama, they ore the oldest things, and per- haps — I think OS I write this — the oldest things in the world ore the things 1 am asking you to teach me again or to teach me for the first time if you hove not. I am sick of searching in obscure places, I am tired of straining for strange-sounding words, and I will not hold the brush so any longer. Pretty soon, Mama, I will come home, and though I am supposed to be coming back with this something big I have been sent away to find, I tell you now that it is nothing. Nothing as compared with putting your foot on free ground for the first time in your life. — Ruth Steinberg MUSEUMS AND TOMBS Tread reverently on this hallowed ground? Speak softly in these venerated halls? Reach lightly toward this old dead splendor? Are they then dead and silenced who left for you This place, these things? Not dead, nor in their graves! They live in the echoes of your scuffling feet; .Their joy goes on through your gay laughter; Their hands touch yours across the years In ever-growing immortality. — Emmie Voden FIRE IN THE NIGHT I spread my nostrils and snuff deeply of the night air. Somewhere there is a fire burning: A pack of starving hounds that have run down their prey. Devoured the flesh, and unsatiated Are licking the bones, cracking them between long fanged jaws; Pungent clouds of steam rise supernaturally From their heated bodies, give a bloody tint to the moon. The workings of invisible principles. The mystic interplay of matter Which changes form but not co ntent. Someone ' s expression of life. The countless, small, intimate articles and intangibles Dissolving into fine ash and smoke While he looks on, Clutches too tightly a charred remnant, Futilely, without realizing. — Jerry Crouch THE LOONY It was a funny kind of job, I thought. I was sitting there waiting for Mr, Voorhees in his study. Nursemaid to a lunatic; I sure hod sunk pretty low. But it would pay well, and that was what counted. I always figure I con take care of myself. Just why Mr. Voorhees wanted to keep his loony son here in the house was something I couldn ' t quite figure, but that was none of my business. The leather chair was comfortable, and I relaxed and watched the flames dancing under the new log in the marble fireplace. I guessed it was the same fireplace where the loony had killed his mother, and I remembered the news stories that came out seven years ago — eighteen year old only son of wealthy furniture manufacturer implicated in mur- der . . . . The story was a sensation and the papers mode the most of it. Servants rushing to the scene found the body of Mrs. Voorhees, her head horribly crushed against a marble hearth in the study . . . used a metal andiron . . . doctors report son as victim of epileptic disorder . . . . He didn ' t know he ' d done it until later. He was all right most of the time, and his father said he would take all the responsibil- ity — kept him under watch all the time now. I wondered how it would feel to know you were crazy. Funny how I wasn ' t afraid about this job; but I always figured I could take care of myself. The idea was to watch carefully all the time, and don ' t let him sneak up on you. When Mr. Voorhees came in I stood up. You ' re Mr. Harris Nicholson? he said as he held out his hand. His grasp was firm and slow and somehow sort of, well, genuine. Everything about him was sincere, and kind of sad even when he smiled at me as he sat down. His hair was young looking, thick and black, but his face in the firelight looked tired and like it had had a tough time of it. He looked at me gravely and I felt sorry for him; I guess he ' d really been kicked around pretty bad. It may seem odd that I should talk to you this way, but I want you to know how it is. His hands, that looked gentle and sensitive, helped him express what he was trying to say. Do you know what loneliness means? His eyes begged me to understand. I could see right away he was trying to put something across to me about taking care of his lunatic son. I was thinking about the times I hod been in the ring with the Kid and how I got so I could get him on his heels with my old right cross to the chin. That made me feel good about this lunatic. But I was listening all the time I was thinking about it, so Mr. Voorhees would know I was sincere about this thing. He kept on talking. You are born lonely, and when you die you are alone. And some people are more alone than others. There is no escape when you are shut up inside yourself. He looked at me and hesitated. What I mean is — some peope are set apart, with an extra wall of loneliness around them that normal people don ' t have. I nodded, and he looked back at the fireplace and went on like he meant to try to say it whether I got the drift or not. No language can penetrate that void of loneliness — no hand can touch the place where your soul hears nothing but its own music. He wasn ' t talking to me anymore; it was like he was reading words from inside himself. He was sitting there real calm, but you knew he meant it, and I guess he knew what he was talking about, although I was waiting for him to get down to where the lunatic came in. You speak words, but only with your tongue, and the words you speak are only an appeal for bread, for warmth, for existence. And that isn ' t what you wont. You can ' t tell them what you really want. The most artic- ulate word you have for that is only a whimper — or silence — or if you are by your- self, tears — to express your voiceless fear for the solitude you don ' t know how to break. He stopped and stored at me. Do you see what I mean? Everybody ' s like that. Some of them may not realize that this is what they have unconsciously known from the beginning of understanding. But you see what I mean? I nodded but I wasn ' t really sure what he was driving at, except to tell me that maybe his son got sort of blue sometimes and I was to expect that. You want to touch another person ' s warm body with your own — some way to get away from the loneliness, but even here is no re- lease. Love — love, even if you could have it, is just a futile desire to share what is in your own soul with someone else — even only one other. Because inside you there is some- thing exquisite, delicate as a snowflake crystal, and it is beautiful and sod and too big and wonderful to express. That ' s what you really are inside. And no one knows what you ore — no one knows! He paused, and when he started again his voice was soft. Do you like the feel of sunlight? You wont to drink it, get it inside you some way, to make what you are clear and luminous as day — or you wont to be in a crowd — you wont to know a lot of people, or just one. Just one living soul. Just one. You try to break through the walls of silence. Or failing that, forget that there is the loneliness inside. And then, right in the midst of the noise or light or people, the stork emptiness of your own soul strikes through and wipes all pre- tense away. His hand gripping the arm of the chair relaxed. That ' s what loneliness is — an eternal wash of solitude inside your soul. And the beauty and pain inside you. Beauty is a sod and lonely thing . . . . He was tired now. The firelight made deep shadows in the hollows of his face. I guess he was afraid he hadn ' t mode it clear to me after all. But I knew what he meant, even if he did soy it in a fancy sort of way. I had known all along that this loony was a special one, and I was prepared without all this. The door from the hallway opened. A white-haired man came in, gently closing it behind him. Mr. Nicholson, he said as I got on my feet. I ' m sorry you have had to wait. I see you ' ve met my son. — Eileen Hartley HARMONY Let me not exist long, But often, In the dominant tones of the scale of life. Because these: Desire, Seeking, Expectation, Are what moke life beautiful. These tones pull the soul towards Satisfaction, Peace, Quiesence: The tonic members of life ' s scale. Yet- When there is no ideal to demand expression. When there is no zeal to demand action, When there is no passion to demand attention. May I be satisfied to live In the every-day, sub-dominant tones Of faith, hope, and love. — Marjorie Keener THE CRITICS I heard you play this evening. I Network of directors, embryo musicians, chairmen of Departments of so and so; Critics of Preparation, Practicing, Rehearsing, Performance, And I . . . .

He had on several occasions even put the wrong food on the plates. This was the second night that he had hurried down the street, past the soft lights of Radio City and through the solemn dark- ness of Rockefeller Plaza, his heart a tight ball of fear from knowing that one night soon when he climbed to his room she would not be there. Anne would be gone even more mysteriously than she had come, leaving un- explained this mystery that was so much a port of her and that hod swept from him all initiative to sit down at his typewriter and link written words on the blank sheets. He turned left on Third Avenue near the Rendezvous, the bar where he had met her two nights ago, knowing now that when she was gone he would come home by another street. He had gone in for a beer before going home, and she was sitting in a booth with a mug in front of her and was studying a mop of the city. He had stood looking at her a moment, not debating, for he knew he was going over and sit with her. But he was observing her slend er body and the nervousness she displayed as she looked at the map. Later, when they had entered his room, she threw herself down across the legless day bed that sat flat on the floor and he went behind the curtain partition and made coffee. And when he brought the cups in and set them on the table beside his typewriter, she had removed the cheap brown dress and lay on the bed naked. It was stif lingly hot in the room, and through the front section of the building that was stored with antique furniture came the noise of a passing El train. Then it was eleven o ' clock in the room and quiet and hot. He brought his cotton bath robe over to the bed; she stood up, and as he slipped the robe about her shoulders she locked her arms around his neck, pushed herself against him, and kissed him hard. She dropped her arms to his waist and held him tightly and laid her head on his chest. He swept the robe from her shoulders and placed his hands on her thin back. She was trembling and the skin of her back was moist and cool. I knew I ' d find you, she whispered against his sport shirt. Not actually you. But you know — you know, don ' t you? He lifted her face and, holding it close against his, saw the play of a slight twitch across her lips. She took her lower lip in her mouth, and with her chin resting in his hand she stood leaning against him with her eyes closed. He picked up the robe for her. She sat down on the bed and stared at him ail the time they were drinking the coffee, and when he began questioning her she said she had come from Chicago. Is your home there? No. I was going to school. I was a divinity student. She had been with him two nights now and that was all she had said about herself. He climbed the narrow stairway past the rooms filled with antique furniture to the third floor and paused a second with his hand on the light switch, afraid that in the lighted room he would find himself alone. He snapped the switch. Her Bible lay beside his typewriter, and Anne lay naked on the bed under the open window. She turned her head and stared at him but didn ' t speak. She hod her lower lip in her mouth. Long after he thought she was asleep she turned and, close against him, began whisper- ing. Carl? He placed his hand on her shoulder. Do you ever sell any of your stories? I haven ' t yet. How long have you been writing? So long I don ' t remember. Much over five years, though. Why do you continue writing, then? Mainly because I keep hoping that I may write something important. Yes. That ' s what keeps us all going on, isn ' t it? Hope that the next mail will bring the letter we ' ve been waiting for all our lives. But people like you and me are miserable, Carl. We ' re never able to say the things we want to say, but because we feel them so strongly we never stop trying. A few people, though, are able to say things just right, and to me they are the golden children of the earth. He lay unmoving, listening to the languoge of this strange girl with the pale, nervous body, who never smiled and who said so little. She was lying on the far side of the bed and was talking distinctly into the dork, hot night of the room. But what is most important, Carl, is thot we try to understand each other. In all the towns and in ail the cities we are saying in loud voices that we have understanding, but our words are no more than the noise of a million locusts. We aren ' t able to under- stand each other if we will not accept expla- nations and try to realize that we do all the things we do because we hope to bring our- selves a little more happiness. I know, Anne. But it doesn ' t work that way. That ' s because there are too many people who profess to goodness and reoily have no goodness in them. I ' ve found too many such people everywhere I ' ve been. My father was a pastor in a small town in Illinois, and he was one of them. Divinity school was full of them. Why did you leave school? Because I couldn ' t stand it any longer. There was nothing but long hours of lectures on the values of doing right — Carl, are you listening? There was nothing but talk, and talk alone is no good, Carl. You know that. Everybody talks too much. Maybe that ' s what ' s wrong with your stories — maybe you talk too much. Most writers do. Even the writers of the Bible talked too much. She turned in bed and moved her cool body close against his and slipped her arms around him. Will you write a story about me some- time? she whispered. What kind of a story? One about people hunting ail their lives for someone to love them, and never finding anyone. That ' s the way it is for some people, and all they ever find is just a lot of people. I ' d like to try it sometime. It seems that it would be so easy. No, it would be hard to write. She ceased talking then and, as on the two previous nights, the nervousness of her body mounted and grew into prolonged f as- sion there in the darkness of morning. The lights were on the next night when Carl came into the room, and the moment he walked over to the bed he knew she was gone. He had never suspected that her leaving would be like this, though, and he knew now that she would always, through all the years, be too much with him, like immature bits of talent whose companion is misery, to be al- ways a port of him, torturously alive but in- articulate. ' He sat down on the bed beside the thin figure and gently traced his fore finger across the small lips. They were cold and there was no longer the softness of the other nights. He brushed a strand of dark hair off her cheek, and with the colorless face held be- tween his hands he sat with his eyes closed, remembering her apprehensive silence by day and her language of the dark hours, wonder- ing about the mystery of her coming and going and the mystery she had left here with him. He stood up and looked dazedly about the room, remembering that she had hod no purse and that he didn ' t even know her last name. Her dress was hanging on the wall, and on the table under the bright glare of the desk lamp was his typewriter with a sheet of paper rolled into it, and beside the machine were her Bible and the map of the city. He sat down at the table; with his elbows in front of the typewriter he held his head in his hands, and it was not until he glanced at the words that he remembered with amaze- ment that he had not left the sheet in the machine when he quit typing four afternoons ago and that the words of the paragraph were not his own. He read the paragraph at least a dozen times, searching in the words for the meaning of Anne ' s life, and then he placed his fingers on the keys and began typing. He worked the remainder of the night and all the next day, oblivious of the heat and of the noise of the passing El trains. Only once he left the table, and that was to lower the window when during the heavy afternoon shower the rain came in and sprinkled her body. Near dusk he knew the story was finished. He had been perspiring in his armpits during all the hours, and he discovered that he was trembling from the overpowering effect of a new excitement: that out of all the years he had been writing he was confident that this time he had been swimming with his head above water. He gathered up the pages and began read- ing, again reading several times the first paragraph: Girls like Anne are the breed of the lo- custs. You ' ll find such girls drifting aimless- ly within the confines of monotony that are the small towns; you ' ll find them walking precariously the defective webs of the great cities of the land. And you may meet them OS strangers on hot summer nights, as I met Anne six days after her release from the Christian Detention Institute for Women. — Dean Cadle THE VALLEY Flesh love is like the sun And spirit love like snow; When sun becomes too warm. Snow tempers it, But sun, alone, con scorch And leave a desert. While snow becomes a glacier. Cuts and chisels The soil that holds it. Blessed the valley touch by both: There Alpine gardens bloom. — Nellie Crabb THE JEWELED ANSWER Most ceremoniously The minister Entered on the noiseless velvet carpet The presence of His Majesty. He presented the scroll On a pellucid cushion Of deep-hued royal satin To his Sovereign Lord And withdrew Discreetly To await the jeweled answer. I have done well He thought, adjusting A fold in his cardinal robe. The reward will come. He stepped forward Receiving the glittering sceptre Inscribed with the sacred message. As he turned to depart, Sweeping the marble terrace With his gleaming tasseled hem, The bone of his ankle barked. — Gretka Young PURSUIT THIS IS WHY The strength to love was gone; Hate stalked his heart. The wind was right and since noon he had walked the ragged hills; the cruel report of twigs that snapped beneath his feet had stopped him cold. He stooped, removed his shoes and went barefooted up the mountainside and lay on jagged rocks to sleep until the blood was dry. He woke to spurt a curse and scream revenge and walked an hour, in front of hate a mile or two, and stopped to sleep again and dreamed he fled the hills down dusty August paths and fell with serpents coiled about his feet. Pursued and caught and still pursued, he laughed and dreamed release would come, and laughed till dreams were frightened out and left the frenzied shape alone. Beyond the slopes and terrible rocks, in fields of tassel ing corn, strange and brutal death was found and charged to undetermined cause. — Willard E. Arnett Because My gold is the farmer ' s gold Is grain in moonlight Because I like sawdust And Stardust and both When I am still one person And my music is Rain on tin and Wind And Beethoven and the Song of the hill-born and Black; And for the Smell of train smoke and gasoline And gardenias For Whitman ' s joy For beauty ' s truth And for the Bleeding earth and White sand of a land I know Where the roots are deep to Half way down — I write. — Rubye Teague Compliments of BLACK BROTHERS EMMART PACKING CO.
