Footprints in the Windsm # 1383–Color deepens

Footprints in the Windsm # 1383

Color deepens
Light suffers
Death of a loved one
Deepens our colors
What then if we die?
Oh, of course, when we die?
Goethe saw light suffering
In colors
If we deepen humanity
Is it because first
Light suffered?
A vessel deepened
Has greater capacity

Not attaining the scale
I’d like is itself
My kiln firing
To deepen
Colors & lustre

Play and dialogue:
Conflict in comfortable
Everyday clothes

Revelation: I fear conflict!
Yet seeding for new growth
Requires plowing under

Revelation two: I fear growth!
So much I keep
My mouth & pen silent

Scale up! Mouth and pen!
Enter the conflict…with self!
Deepen your colors
Speak out!
To spouse, family, world!
First, plow under, seed,
Play & dialogue,
Dance & snow
Relentlessly piling up:
But if you must, War!
