Читать книгу Twisted Shapes of Light - William Jolliff - Страница 12

Holiness is a discipline. It demands attention.

To begin, play games, but quit before winning.

Touch a soft brown arm, but never, never kiss.

Play heaven’s music, but never end a song.

It’s like any other diet. Protein supplements

will keep you alive, and you will learn, someday,

to feel full. What must be beaten daily is

that misbegotten longing for something sweet.
