you meet you in me
How do I meet you?
Perhaps you meet you in me

Stretching words
peeling their rind
digging out their fruit center
finding their seed
such is the poet’s work

poet’s work
Meeting meeting itself
Meeting means not only meeting another being as such but meeting meeting itself. “May there be a goodly share on every table everywhere” means responsibility for humans and for me. Meeting implies responsibility in response. Meeting meeting in its moving. Meeting a mirroring: responding to responding.
:- Doug.
The dashes
I-Thou and I-It it seems to tell us something in their respective dashes: In one case it is one directional, in the other multi dimensional. Maybe that is a clue to understanding Buber anew.
:- Doug.
threading between beings
What if the holy were the strandings between beings: the pulsing threading; always moving; touching, meeting? This meets the test of verbing: holy other. It meets the test of being in presence in nature. It meets the test of Indra’s net.
:- Doug.
