“I am really denying the value of wisdom as a life force.
Wisdom is to be used only to conquer death, destruction, or tragedy, but not as
a substitute for life.” Anaïs Nin in Fire, from A JOURNAL OF LOVE, the
unexpurgated diary 1934-1937(Harcourt Brace & Company)

There (is) nothing
to hold it.
This dense
messy fog: ) Feelings ( : water suspended in air to thrive on—and I’ll clear
my way
through (all)
these moods
that can erupt
at any
moment… [solar]explosion is my style.
You expected
a quiet lake (by you)
you end up
with
a volcano ) and ( a water fall
as (life) companions as brackets to embrace an overflowing whole…
brimming bursting always past and beyond…
no number no
letter no (magic) formula to tame or control this
spring: ) of life ( …
(thus) entropy is the
law
till randomness
and disorder lead
to
uniformity
which means (my) death
an ) old ( … )original( [home]land I belong
to
[ii]
the bite of the needle
stitch after stitch but no thread
carving a period which is also a dot
a little hole in the tissue of this haunting dream
suspension dots are my landmarks sewing and weaving
abstractions with the flesh embroideries of
nothingness as envelope
for a body of
unimportance
and yet
this light
