Aphor-ism

Updated: Dec 11, 2022

Truth is a shadow caught in a lightning bolt.

Beauty relieves the nihilism of truth.

Love dissolves and redeems all.

Truth is a shadow caught in a lightning bolt,

Nihilism is a lack of courage against the uncertainty of all.

Beauty is the realisation of the harmony present without and within.

Harmony is a breath or the beat of a heart.

Love annihilates all pretensions of control and demands trust in place of questioning.

Beauty presents us with the mystery of life:

unanswered, unbound, unnamed

Questions create the expectation of answers.

Answers limit the breadth and mystery of life.

Unanswered, unbound, unnamed.

COLLECTIONS

DEATH BY AGREEMENT

some seem to have agreed a pact for passage.
tidings hard to fathom.

STRANGE WATERS

experimental forms and thoughts that seem to come from elsewhere

AS IT IS

here now: this is what we find, this is what we see, this is what finds us

TRACERY

second and third associations. words and shapes.

Where fairies dream (1024x683)_edited.jpg

ANGRY RED SUN, PALE SHADOWED NIGHT

a second stab at a book-style tranche of writings. formed in the end not entirely how it was intended.

THROUGH LIGHT

first steps. written mostly past midnight through dawn. night muse visitations.

WHO AM I?

Strandloper, edge-dweller, being. Sometime poet.

This site began as insomnia. Soon there were enough words for a book (Through Light). A little later, another collection was almost a book (Angry Red Sun, Pale Shadowed Night). Then came snatches of someone's thoughts from somewhere (As It Is). Dark tidings have also been received (Death by Agreement).
Along the way there are words on a plane (Tracery).
