Wabi-Sabi
It says something,
but not through its adopted means
For example,
this sentence shows something
through the looks of its letters,
as shapes,
and not necessarily through its habitual meaning
From there, new worlds!
Fools look to reason for results,
although reason is nothing but pretext
Wherever you look, things change,
wherever you change, look! Things!
Carl Gustav Jung's synchronicity
lets us create meaning
where there isn't an obvious one,
and perchance open up a hidden latticework
in the depths of existence
Wabi-Sabi is a modern and ancient way
of looking and breathing
with a certain gusto,
as you and I and everything come about
with a certain gusto of The Cosmos
The simplest thing
opens up the crack
where Leonard Cohen's voice
shines through
How ever you feel
is just how angles meet
in today's geometry,
or where angels fall short
in Gustave Doré's illustrations
Flour flies
in the livelihood
of Evert Taube's baker
in San Remo
Japanese school children
with their colourful backpacks
walk to classes
through long forest kilometers
Hospices lodge fragile memories
that flake and fall like dandelion seeds
through the backlight of so many days,
while glittering and glimmering phonemes stutter
out of splintering words of pray
The roar of a Harley-Davidson dopplers
down a distant highway
in the dead of night,
from the beginning to the end
of your earshot,
and returning to Herman Melville's Moby-Dick,
the end evens out
