Art is a journey into the most unknown thing of all - oneself. Nobody knows his own frontiers… I don’t think I’d ever want to take a road if I knew where it led.

Louis Kahan
    A butterfly’s
noises while eating something—
such quietness.
    A white peony
We say, yet I sense
Faint pink
    To cure fields where
We gathered greens in daylight
It rains at night.
    Still sunk in the east
Is the sun; the field of
Wild flowers
    the winds that blow —
ask them which leaf on the tree
will be next to go
    Very brief:
Gleam of blossoms in the treetops
On a moonlit night.
    The temple bell stops.
But the sound keeps coming
out of the flowers.
    temple bell
also sounds like it is
cicada’s voice
    Hydrangea, a truth of yesterday, a lie of today.
