the Pledge

Today is the 15th anniversary of my first doing what the people below did in San Francisco last year.

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

"I love you like..."

"I love you like the Pilgrim loves the Holy Land, like the wayfarer loves his wayward ways, like the immigrant that I am loves America, and the blind man the memory of his sighted days."
- Arthur Penn's 1981 Four Friends
