hard times “Poetry has never been truly taken seriously outside of the beauty of its associations.” -Nassim Taleb
less challenging to find center, to come into stillness, when all is well. but in hard times we need presence most!
how viable are our revelations if they don’t sustain us as we slip into another unfolding Depression?
here we are gaping in disbelief at this Black Swan! Fooled by Randomness again.
it is what it is.
one can envisage dreadful scenarios. lose self in gloomy probable futures. turn into the face of guilt and failings of hindsight-pasts. how far is that from essence?

wow! is that a photo? how’d you get that liddle bird in there? x
I call it a “digital painting” based on a photo.
The “liddle bird” got there all on its own; the question is how did I get the liddle camera in there ; )
Many thanks~
