Leaving SAN Francisco

perpetuity thought of the day in verse

             
 
                    It does not stop or drop

                     But goes on forever

                     Matter transforms itself

                      Death it triumphs never .



                      And yet we do not see

                       The lastingness of things -

                        Through the many changes

                        From chrysalis to wings .




                        Art is the permanence

                         Behind the fake facade,

                          That which is recurring

                           Soft sunlight in a yard .































                    

Monument

    
 ,    
            The corrugated iron shed in a surburban  garden ,should be in some shanty town or on a mountain top . Its  vertical lines are the columns of a temple which time has worked upon  - peeled off its painted layers .Rust red black and grey in subtle artistry . And on its southern pediment yellow laurel creates archaic forms and fuchsia hangs down flame red. The grey green felt  sagging roof sparkles like a shimmering mountain , makes one dream of peakes beyond - Behind its hilly lines, hues of various blues - cumulus clouds fly by against red roofs and chimney pots ,until some un -poetic mind should pull it down , or it should fly back home at last .

Thought of the day 2 Imagine

         Sometimes I imagine that  I descend  into the deep engine room of the psyche.  It is  surprisingly quiet -on  the wall is a small half circular  dial.  The left side reads-  life is bad  or at least could be a lot damned better .On the other side  of the dial it reads -  life is good and could hardly be improved  Please click onto your preferred state ! Could it all be so easy ? And further - more-  would I dare  enjoy  unalloyed happiness ?

Thought of the day - The big sleep or layers of reality

              


               I  awoke  from  my  dream -


                Into  the  real  world 


                But  someone  is  shaking  me


                Insistently  to        wake  up !
