Relativity

Things are only as in their relation to others.
Water is at the lake as much as sand is in the desert.

Curtains


An action, a single concept, projectable onto many distinct contexts and emotions.

Curtains sway gently.

Scenario 1: A quiet sleeper train, a muffled engine sound in the background, a snore here and there.

Scenario 2: An unmoving sleeper train, more dimly lit, and not a sound around, only the silent, unwarranted waving of the curtains.

Scenario 3: An unmoving sleeper train, more dimly lit, and not a sound around, only the silent, unwarranted waving of the curtains. You know that behind the closest curtain waits for you a lovely traveler you just met, brushing her soft legs together in anticipation of the meeting of your skins.

No one knows what you know. Be free to inform others.

Eagle

Brave eagle
Glides through a vast ocean
So many places to fly
but is brave to choose only one.

Raw

Raw wild energy is not to be repressed, but guided.

Oak

Under a seeing-eye mighty oak*,
a refuge from rain I sought
a great umbrella of purplish hues
generous with protection

Neutered

Neutered for so long
forgotten how to effect
pawing, stumbling, grabbing
at whatever helps me remember.
