One of the best places for pizza in Vancouver is on Denman Street. Stopped for a late dinner after a bike ride and ran into a poet at Olympia Pizza on Denman
His name is Fazil Sultan, and he works at the restaurant. He happened to be off work when I arrived, and after meeting each other we walked down to the beach together and enjoyed some talks about life. He gave me a book of his poems and they are very good. Love this one:
O God, hurry up and send us a new flood; the first was useless
And this one gets to the truth:
Between birth and death, the present devours everything; the soul soars high and watches time, while our action weaves the spaces in between
What an amazing world. Sherman Dahl, The Emily Dahl Foundation
