Wild Geese
by Mary Oliver
You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are heading home again.
Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting -
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.
Orders close at noon EDT on April 24 for an expected ship date of May 8

I am transitioning the shop to a different model of base AS Colour t-shirts that have boxier dimensions, more similar to Comfort Colors. This means that NOT ALL AS COLOUR SHIRTS FIT THE SAME, even if they are the same color! This design is printed on the new shirts (Staple Minus). The linked size charts are accurate to the blanks used for each specific design. If you aren’t sure, feel free to email me!
