on a clear day

The finished poem from the random voice-note recorded on the walk the other day.

 

“An unhurried sense of time is in itself a form of wealth.”
― Bonnie Friedman Original source

 
p.s. I'll be back to read some of your poetry in a bit. Some mist is coming in and I don't want to miss Today. But I know some of you know me by now and I don't need to tell you this anymore. See you in a bit 💜

How do I make them remember?
How do I make them remember me?
How do I ask them to help me remember?

How do we remember how to see?

On a clear day I see
the lying eyes
behind the frozen smiles

On a clear day
I see
my country sinking

On a clear day
I stop
and talk to strangers

On a clear day
I see
my thinking

On a clear day
I see
my Shadow

walking beside me
like the friend it’s always been

On a clear day
the mountains look inviting

On a clear day
I’m already on the peak

On a clear day
my silence is decided

On a clear day
I find it easier to speak

On a clear day
I take my time to keep on moving

On a clear day
I fall down on my knees

On a clear day
it doesn't really matter

On a clear day
I have everything I need

On a clear day
the music sounds familiar

On a clear day
it’s easier to Be

On a clear day

I find this most striking; mixed with the agony, frustration, and a strong will to let go; to FREEDOM.

Perception is a chaotic thing, parties involved never get settled on what's right as both are right in their senses. What a mess it is! Staying neutral might be better, either everybody wins or loses. How's that?

Hmmmm... nah.

Then the shitheads keep being shitheads.

And we ALL lose, really.

this can't be avoided.

One impacts one person, impacts a whole community, society and the world.

Really. It does. #thebigpicture

I do wish we humans would wake up and understand this already? 🙄

It's not the "isms" that are the real problem, you see.

It's the behaviour.

I'll demonstrate this better in the book I'd like to write some day. Because it's complicated. Yet so very simple!

But basically... the only thing that is "right" is "truth".

And anything we avoid getting involved in that isn't "right" - even by ignoring it - ends up in pain and chaos and acrimony.

You can't fix anything by avoiding it.

You can't come to mutual compromise by avoiding conversation. And pretending things are fine creates more acrimony in the long run.

The basics 👆

#aweh #awehness #theelephantintheroom

If you stay neutral when harm is occurring you enable and perpetuate. So nope. Sadly.

Neutrality is avoidance.

I would say keep your feelings neutral while things are addressed! :D Then you can avoid acrimony and, possibly, find solutions.

Hear! hear!

Now that you've said it all, literally from every possible aspect, I should take a break cause you know, you said it all. But I'm not taking a neutral position here, just accepting the superiority of your knowledge and experience.

...if that mist comes always remember that you have the sun inside you.

Thank you :)

I translated this but I think some of the poetry in your comment may have been missed by Googley Google :|

It seems to me like a walk of the imagination in a mirage.

How interesting and inspiring and now it makes me wander and wonder further! <3

Wish I knew Spanish. Still haven't started this one.
