disappearing-

I watch the birds

fly south

16

or...think MOVIE (a living process encapsulated in a dream conjured by allusion triggered by minimal textually scripted cues) - one step from (literally) a magical journey

/

a leafy puddle

in extra-extraterrestrial mode-

October stars

17

be aware that making sense is another mental construct

/

act 3, scene 1

of a never ending pantomime-

moulting trees

18

think of this as a seed which evolves a unique cosmos

/

costumes of soul-

is this young autumn fly

last summer's old one?

19

consciously subserving the whole cosmos as a part cuts out the middlemen and cherishing all manifest create-ures (including inorganic forms) as one would say a kitten is the way to go

/

children's faces

flickering-

leaf fire

20

an eternal question of balance

/

disappearing-

I watch the birds

fly south

21

Please understand, I’m not invalidating what you’ve said. I’m merely trying to pick apart the problem. :)

/

oligopoly-

Brother North Wind's wrecking crew

tear up the lane

22

geospatial intelligence

/

wilding tree,

its fruit dropping

on cow's heads

data 23

human beings first - flags/hats second? (or rather 'being' first - to help us identify habitually with ALL apparently partial aspects of a living cosmos in a larger unity)

/

comfy tussock-

for falling leaves

and me

24

that fractures boundless eternity into radiant (radii) timelines (infinite possible chronologies)

/

this falling leaf

and nobody

to see

this falling leaf

and none but I

to see

25

but by holding any idea impartially the transcendent comes halfway to supply precisely the next step (as alway and irrevocably)

/

coulrophobia:

scaring the leaves

next door's cat

26

think about what - doing things to improve the inevitable?

/

King's girl-

what's she doing

to the trees?

27

theres no escape from karma until it burns out - but better habits can begin immediately

/

rattling

in it's socket-

another leaf

28

ALWAYS check your facts and ALWAYS document relevant history in writing - take nothing for granted

/

a smiling assassin

lit by the Harvest Moon-

next door's cat

29

if in doubt request clarification (in writing) . being alive is serious business as well as a pipe dream (if not passion play)

/

enchanted-

next door's cat admires

a turnip lantern

30

but by holding any idea impartially the transcendent comes halfway to supply precisely the next step (as alway and irrevocably)

/

a spider

on a falling leaf

abseils!

31

if a recipe specifies the juice of 1 lemon replace it with 2 tablespoons of bottled lemon juice

/

roomscapes

all steamed up-

crabapple jam
