If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite.
For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern.

A #haiku from me about making peace with depth, without demanding resolution or comfort.

waterfall of clouds:
dark is the name of the deep—
cirrus flaming waves

the stairway to joy
has fire pillar of snowflakes
winds carry their gates

Love the chain of memory…
Time’s Tattoo

A futile, charming chase
To fix time's fleeting grace.

Photos are time’s tattoo,
So dearly, sorely gained
Where memory is chained.

Then Eno, a daughter of Beulah took a Moment of Time
And drew it out to Seven thousand years with much care and affliction
And Many tears and Every year made windows into Eden
