“…I do not know what to do…
We begin, or end, there.”
“while poetry will be the clear, the fact of the head,
prose will be the coming, and going. Around.
…It is not a matter of better, or worse. There is no competition.”
-Robert Creeley-

Imagined Hike with Companion
(for S.K.)
Looking at you
as into a tree
full of running water,
that steady,
that moving,
an attempt at description
of cognitive complexity
and integrity,
my friend
you exhibit fidelity,
similitude of redundancy,
my familiar
coupled with surprise
or invention,
the information
your embeddedness enacts
with this world
of flowing waters
and sturdy trees.

For over a month I have faced the following on my desk:
created for me and delivered with a a sheaf of empty pages and a stapled complete story by my precious daughter Ida, aged 8:
I am passing it along to each of you…as I struggle with the task…
“One needs to have wandered a lot, to have taken many paths, to realize, when all is said and done,
that at no moment one has left one’s own…
…To forget in order to know; to know in order to fill up the forgotten, in its own time.”

Wanderings & observations
Understanding ourselves and the world we live in.
Hype,Decoded.
-the near-unconsciousness of possible meanings -
Daydreaming and then, maybe, writing a poem about it. And that's my life.
