acknowledging the lack of courage
to greet the return of light
despite fabulous surroundings
and endless opportunities
might be
a way
to enter the present
on a winter solstice day
validation
changing the memory
means making peace with
a painful past
which in most cases
have not been validated
as such
and hence
is haunting for recognition
at no matter what
cost
recognising the pain
is the first step towards peace
accepting it
another
carrying it the moment
where the burden becomes
light
lack
undermining the inner structure
in order to keep up
appearances
is an old story
despite the obvious
that nothing grows
in lack of joy
boredom
there is nothing unusual in
being bored
though interpreting boredom
as lack of lucidity
can be detrimental
alert
sometimes an answer is given
with greater precision than
even the most brilliant mind can grasp
hence express
when the inner ear is wide open
and the heart alert
underestimate
there are so many sorts of
dependence
and none of them
are to be praised
for as long as they are
dependences
no matter how glorious
they might appear
though something is to be praised
in every person
and that something should never be
underestimated
blame
blame is a poison
eroding every heart
while perfused into it
in regular drops
cold sets in
and what was meant to be
abundance of love
turns into
depths of despair
unbearable
when forbearance grows
unbearable
the intention of care
turns into overbearingness
believing
there is nothing erroneous in
believing in love
it does make a difference though
to discern
what kind of love
we believe in
principle
when principles
grow more important than
the presence
reality is lost
