📃🪶 Capacity To Wonder
Last Updated: 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Perhaps there is no "good" or "bad" art, but only the human capacity to wonder and to be plugged into the universe, and to desire, no, to NEED to express what we see.
"We are the universe, looking back on itself."1
Capacity To Wonder
What a great experience
Is capacity to wonder
That this evolved ape
Should experience it
A short
Series of trips around the sun
From in an infinite-looping-back-on-itself universe
Do I receive, to glimpse it all and perhaps record some, and capacities of thoughts to share for others to enjoy
Before I let out my breath with a sigh, grateful
For what was a brief but beautiful, gift of life.
I guess now I know
Why some choose to reproduce
Rather than to leave themselves there
Behind
But I choose to write!
And perhaps create art to be seen and felt!
Because I can't fight the creative spirit!
No! No more!
