& Poems #7
Sef alias -//\\- has made some
wonderful poems to some of my pictures.
Here's a
collection.
An Formal Experiment
by Lars
formal?
experiment?
Signals coming in
Loud and clear
Some strange language
Bending an ear
Forests of antennae
Satellite dishes too
Translate! Translate!
Whilst roaming in the gloaming
The eye will see
What the eye will see
And then they ask:
What about the ear?
Do seeing ears hear?
no matter, no matter,
far away or near
nothing could be more true,
nothing could be more clear.
"There's music in my brain,"
said the experimenter, ...
"sounds like strauss humming..."
Thought streams flowing on the way to knowing...)

Unknown Art
by Lars
the one in the hat
is the most unknown
the most unknown of all
unknown art
cannot be taught
nor can it e'er be known
unknown creators of
unknown art.
cannot e'er be known

Deep in the Autumn Forest
by Lars
Gateless gate of autumn
Arched above it's woodland path
Beckons with
Only a glimpse into, through, around it's curve
Only a glimpse, that's all
Setting up a roar of desire in the lion of soul,
A painful roar of longing to pass on through
The golden deep red mahogany heartwarming glow
Through that gateless gate we long to go
And see what delights in our hearts we know
Must be, has to be,
Within our grasp around the bend
The magical land of winter's end
Where frosty white snow-laden arches will bend
To form frozen green arches of Begin Again...

The Morning Sun
by Lars
full sun coming through
Not beaming between the trees
That's incredible!
-//\\-
Autumn is almost gone
by Lars
blue diamonds edged black
where winter's stored away cold
waiting for it's cue
satin-glass ripples
wondering what's on the stalk
black bud white snowflake

Abstract Abstractism
by Lars
Only a Haiku
With no beginning or end
Could praise this artist!
-//\\-
Cavedwellers
by Lars
Only the nose knows where the cavedweller goes
"Which way's the way?" asked that ugly creature.
"Just follow your nose sir," said the Netherworld Preacher,
extoling the beauty of the dwellers therein,
Never knowing they're as ugly as homemade sin.
Only the nose knows
that "Something's rotten in the state of denmark."
hahahahahahaa......

Cold Forest
by Lars
They are very beautiful,
and so cold they make us
remember a long forgotten
time it was
so cold it hurt to breathe...

Weird Christmas Tree
by Lars
There is a warmth aglowing
Beneath the cold snow snowing
Little birds
Fluff up their feathers,
perch themselves upon black twigs
and
Sing with Joy,

After the Storm
by Lars
It's a heart
Beating on the crest of a wave
Far and away out to sea
Floating like flotsam and jetsam
Rocking gently back and forth
Back and forth with every beat
Systolic
Diastolic
Systolic
Diastolic
Systolic
Dyastolic...
... forever...

The Ultimate Truth
by Lars
When the ultimate truth was finally told,
It was like this wonderful picture, a few
simple lines hidden in a tapestry too vast
for most of us to decipher....

What you see, is what you see
by Lars
I thought I saw what I saw,
But later upon taking a second look
I saw what I did not see.

What's real
by Lars
Not remembering what's real
Leads into not remembering past
Making yesterday today again
Fresh and new
That's not morning dew
That's mind mist
Hanging curtains over Reality.

A Tree in the Mist
by Lars
In a light blue fog
We can only see and hear
What is here and now
-//\\-
Bears that lie in wait
by Lars
Beautiful white bears
Peacefully sleeping in snow
Winter's waiting time

Ducks on a Pond
by Lars
Light is the shadow of dark
and dark the shadow of light.
That's the conclusion I've drawn
from Ducks on a Pond.

Yesterdays today
by Lars
Yesterday's today
In a blink "now' is no more
Today's tomorrow

Sunset in the Forest
by Lars
At Sunset in the forest
I came upon a tree
Whose limbs grew in
Such a way
that I,
even I,
Could climb up
to the top,
The Very Tip-Top
I did.
Now I can plainly see
What before was hid from me
-//\\-
Trees
by Lars
Two trees or many
Bare limbs dark into skylight
All trees are one tree
And always so very beautiful
that passers-by must stop
to stand in awe
to stare
(for at least a moment)
Before being propelled back
into the torrents

Sunset in the Forest
by Lars
The shadows are not flickering
For the wind has died down low
'tis the chickadees and the sparrows
who softly come and go...
-//\\-
Ducks on the Pond
by Lars
Duck, What do you see?
Do you see those glorious colors?
Do you feel the beauty of the world
You swim and dive around in?
Or is it your one and only feat
To be a feathery bundle of eat, eat, eat!
So many mysteries.!
It's no wonder we wonder all the time.

The End of Land
by Lars
Stepping stones
all lined up in a row
Placed there eons
and ages ago,
by one of the ones but not
that one for sure
you can tell that by the
fact they didn't endure
Made of ordinary stone they
weathered and wore
Soon they'll disappear like
they always did before
Should've been made of
something that grows
But nobody could say so
For nobody knows.
They thought they were building pyramids.

Dream Castle
by Lars
manmade
made not by man
here, solidly visible
beyond the beyond
visible, uninvisible
strength; solidarity
graspable
yielding; ephemeral
ungraspable...
one and other
yet one harmonious one
-//\\-
Deep Philosophy
by Lars
If it's true,
That our shadows have shadows
And true that we
Could possibly be
The shadow of something else,
Then that something else
Must evidently be
It's plain to see
The shadow of
Another Something Else..
"Therefore we conclude,"
Said the deep philosophy dude,
That in the deepness we see
There never will be
no more, no less than continuity!
Eureka!!!!
Doctor Puddles' deep philosophy
Has earned him another degree
From the university!
hahahahhaaaa
