Reid Baer is NO JIHAD recruiter but a poet who enjoys peaceful Persian things like this Mosaic poem:<br /><br />My Marvelous Mosaic<br />By Reid Baer<br /><br />My simple mind likes to quickly <br />identify with a single <br />piece – a colorful pebble – a <br />bright green stone – a small ceramic <br /><br />tile I can call my own and then <br />call it quits and go directly<br />home but my collective psyche <br />won’t collaborate in such a <br /><br />narrow scheme that eliminates <br />shapes and sizes and mandala-<br />like patterns illuminating <br />a vision of the many parts – <br /><br />the tiles – the stones – from which a more <br />complete mosaic of reds - blues – <br />and blacks are at stake and the great <br />multitude of terracotta <br /><br />promises an integrated <br />picture into a floor – a grand<br />ceiling – a towering mountain<br />of uncompromising beauty!
