Chesterton Chapters four through six Chapter four The Telegraph Poles My friend and I were walking in one of those wastes of pine wood which make inland seas of solitude in every part of Western Europe, which have the true terror of the desert, since they are uniform, and so one may lose their way in them.

Stiff, straight, and similar stood up all around us the pines of the wood like the pikes of a silent mutiny.

There is a truth in talking of the varieties of nature, but I think that nature often shows her chief strangeness in her sameness.

It tangled it all together and yet made it free, like any grotesque undergrowth of oak or holly.

You never will know till your precious intellectual civilization builds a forty-mile forest of telegraph poles.

We had started walking from our temporary home later in the day than we had intended, and the long afternoon was already lengthening itself out into a yellow evening when we came out of the forest onto the hills above a strange town or village of which the lights had already begun to glitter in the darkening valley.

Gosh.

So it's just a, a Scat of the Telephone Pole run away from being, Najee Harris being in your lineup.

Okay.

Wide receiver.

For about a mile we use the fence of the golf course.

We can enclose it using real walls, but for the most part, we use these forms of a door using the telephone poles and the wires that are on the telephone poles.

You came literally with a bucket truck, and we, we had a blackout right before you came.

And when you pulled up, I was convinced it was the electric company.

I said, "Wow, they came so fast." I like walked upstairs and I saw you there.

Thank God we have the electricity back.

But you're like, you're going up on telephone poles.

I wanna understand what you're doing, but I first wanna understand, explain very clearly what does this mean, the Talmudic term is a tzuras hapesach, which is the frame of a doorway.

we had started walking from our temporary home later in the day than we had intended and the long afternoon was already lengthening itself out into a yellow evening when we came out of the forest onto the hills above a strange town or village of which the lights had already begun to glitter in the darkening valley the change had already happened which is the test and definition of evening i mean that while the sky seemed still as bright the earth was growing blacker against it
