To poke mystery
What is to know? To mystery, to poke mystery as if to poke holes in its veil, this is to us to know. This satisfies or must satisfy as monastery wall with a crack and a Zen view of mountains and green valley.

What little I know

Failing, flailing
O failing, flailing old man!
You have made the world
Grey
Its only color
The blood
Of the myriads dying
Silently

I don’t know anything
nothing can be known
nothing sits still long enough

When happen?
When do things happen
that happen
in imagination?
In one time only
Or in more?

turn-taking
Who says conversation has to be simultaneous? Email is not; texts are not. For that matter, in-person conversations have a lot of turn-taking.

as kin because they could
by saying it
become one another
so how come we don’t love one another
over generations?

Only place we have
There is no place to get to—where we are is the only place we have—it is a question of questioning what we do to help one another—love one another.
:- Doug.
