…the water is rising – Raymond Carver QUOTES FOR WRITERS

Life and death matters, yes. And the question of how to behave in this world, how to go in the face of everything. Time is short and the water is rising.

    It delivers in such few words – but then that’s what Carver did in all his writing. I’m not sure when he wrote this, but his own life was far too short. I wonder if he knew how close he was to the water himself.

If you want to use any of this material contact me and there is a very good chance I will say YES.
However, if you just cut and paste into your own blog or whatever and pass it off as your own then there's a very good chance I will find out. Don't fall into the trap of thinking the internet is so vast and expanding so fast (note the fancy internal rhyme)] that no one will know.
