aSongforCon
“What shall I take with me?
Will I let nothing behind me over the earth?
How shall my heart act?
Is it that we come in vain to live,
to sprout over the earth?
Let us leave at least flowers,
let us leave at least songs.”
― Nezahualcóyotl

Take her and cut her out in little stars,
And she will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.”

The first turn of the sunlight orb,
illumines immortals’ doors;
then whirls on through the misty wind
into the darkness above.
Though I cannot get to share
this morning view with you,
the azure on the horizon expands,
spreading blue upon blue.

At Beyond-the-Clouds:
where winds blow high,
where sun is near,
it’s free of the finest dust.
When level cloudbanks splash
their dye
on the Lotus Wall,
it seems to wait for a poet
and for the jewel moon.
(Xue Tao)

28 today …
Byzantium’s child
bathed in the light
of the Holy Ghost
Wild, lone,
she takes a tomb
as her retreat
to remember and pray
She has baffled
all our sages
as well as psalmists,
rabbis and priests
Were she to beckon
toward the gospel
you’d see us as vicars,
deacons or priests
Driver, I cried,
as she saddled to leave,
don’t carry her
away in your train!
The day she left me
I set loose squadrons
along the path,
armies of patience
(-Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabi)
Rest in Peace Tenshi ….. xx
#0877 Angel of Loll – Loscil
aSongforCon
“Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting:
The Soul that rises with us, our life’s Star,
Hath had elsewhere its setting,
And cometh from afar:
Not in entire forgetfulness,
And not in utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds of glory do we come”
― William Wordsworth

#0875 Truth Ray – Thom Yorke
aSongforCon
And when great souls die,
after a period peace blooms,
slowly and always
irregularly. Spaces fill
with a kind of
soothing electric vibration.
Our senses, restored, never
to be the same, whisper to us.
They existed. They existed.
We can be. Be and be
better. For they existed.”
― Maya Angelou

If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior. All those other things, they are the glass that contains the lamp, but you are the light inside.” Cassandra Clare
