75 Love and duality. -What then is love besides understanding and rejoicing in the fact that someone else lives, acts, and feels in a different and opposite way than we do? If love is to use joy to bridge over oppositions, it must not suspend or deny them. -Even love of self assumes an unalloyable duality (or multiplicity) within a single person as its precondition.
270 The eternal child. -We believe that fairy tales and games belong to childhood: shortsighted as we are! As if we would like to live without fairy tales and games at any age! Admittedly, we call it something else and experience it differently, but this is precisely what speaks for it being exactly the same thing-for the child, too, feels that games are his work and fairy tales his truth. The brevity of life should preserve us from pedantically separating the ages oflife-as if each one brought something new-and a poet should sometime present to us a human being two hundred years old who really does live without fairy tales and games.
Ever changing skies
like the dreams they can
show you what you will
if you stare
long enough
In all the years I lived with her
she never woke up
I guess I didn't ether
I once lifted you up
while I was waiting to be alone
The sun doesn't set
when you are high enough
In the distance sea
I live
I've seen these mountains a thousand times
from the window where I stand
and only the clouds
change them
What are the mountains waiting for?
A forest moves
while the spirit is not
I drove through the town
one I knew from long ago
and I still do know
but from a distance
And suddenly
I like suddenly
Mountains, a road, and a public toilet
what more do you want
Moving is exciting
even if you don't know you are
On one side I can lean against the earth
on the other against you
the sea
ebb and flow
the salt
I move life like tetris blocks
making it fit
while it's coming down
and going up
