He pounds with cruel violence his bat upon the plate.
And now the pitcher holds the ball, and now he lets it go,

And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Mudville, mighty Casey has struck out.

To be true, you have to take the plunge, to touch bottom. But most people want to be in control. They fear the worst. You can’t control anything. What you have to do is let yourself be taken over.. .All the paintings I have made, I was compelled to make. You must never force yourself.
