Pretty Quiet
December 18th, 2006I didn’t say
a word today …
until I got
to the corner
shop, then three
words came out
of my mouth:
“Hi”, “Thanks” and
“Bye”. I believe
this to be
a pretty major
achievement of mine

Food for worms
I just saw
two clouds kissing
Cats and rabbits
would reside in fancy little houses
and be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
in a world of my own
All the flowers
would have very extra special powers
they would sit and talk to me for hours
when I’m lonely in a world of my own
There’d be new birds
lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
everyone would have a dozen blue birds
within that world of my own
I could listen to a bubbling brook
and hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it could be that way
because my world would be a wonderland
When I am
swimming in the
sea, I am
that sea. When
I am talking
to a woman
I am that
woman. When I
am dining with
a friend, I
am that friend.
When I hear
music, I am
that music. When
I feel sad
I am sad.
But when I
feel nothing, see
nothing, think nothing
I am nothing
and since nothing
is perfect, that’s
when I’m perfect
Another addiction, I
am giving you
up easily? like
I did cigarettes
alcohol, fame, success
family, friends, nature
and my self
This entire globe, this star, not being subject to death, and dissolution and annihilation being impossible anywhere in Nature, from time to time renews itself by changing and altering all its parts. There is no absolute up or down, as Aristotle taught; no absolute position in space; but the position of a body is relative to that of other bodies. Everywhere there is incessant relative change in position throughout the universe, and the observer is always at the centre of things.
