THE ORACLE 1972
Colby College Waterville, Maine

We pause ...

to consider the world anew.

We seek to discover the how ...
8
the why of our existence,
10
11
to make sense of the limbo in which we live ...
12
and dream
.

and learn.

Hemmed in by structures that surround us ...
18
by walls of indifference
19
we look to others for aid,
20
for assurance ...
21
22
or we turn inward
23
to the solitude of our own souls
24
and travel our road alone.

Raindrop A rain drop fell and glided down my window all alone. It stopped half way and seemed to search the world of glass for something unforseen. An other rain drop fell and joined it in its winding path. Together they moved on; the two of them were one. -Chris Belsky
