Anthropologist Marvin Harris tries to convey the reasoning behind India’s problem involving starvation in his paper‚ India’s Sacred Cow. To us Westerners it seems silly to have millions upon millions of people starving while such a tasty and nutritionally satisfying food source is wandering the streets.

2/11/13 I heard Barry Harris’ trio at William Paterson University yesterday. They mostly played standards from the great american songbook‚ but also played a few Thelonious Monk compositions including ’Round Midnight’ and ’Off Minor’.

In the first stanza of this poem‚ you can already point out a metaphor and biblical reference. “Where is the angle for me to wrestle? No driving snow in the glass bubble‚ bust mild September.” I think first off‚ the speaker is asking‚ “Why have I not been challenged?” The glass bubble that the

“I lost my wife‚” cried Harris again‚ distraught over the indifference of the two men. The two men did not reply‚ shaking their heads at him in vague amusement.
