They are exactly what you portrayed. Maybe boys to before they grow into full blown manhood. Funny and therefore interesting in their babyhood and mature and they lose the sheen of life.Originally Posted by PrinceMyshkin

“If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.

rice cakes

And don't some go about this like a hunt? I have been snorted at while an old woman paws the floor, head down for charging, over the last 3 cans of chicken broth at Thanksgiving.
I liked the aisle effect.
Sounds like a very austere diet, though.
I feel like a behind for being so behind on this thread. I am enjoying it very much! What a wonderful little book this would be bound up in a cover that looks like a small photo album.
I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

Two bicyclists
glide by on Fairmount
as if in slow motion.
I watch them.
I continue to watch them.

strange. how strange.
Would you elaborate, please, on what you find strange about this?

Maybe you should have blinked.

A woman walks by
so lightly
she carries the sound of her footsteps
away with her

Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
~Albert Einstein
Like a procession of pelicans
a troupe of high-school seniors
waddled efficiently down the lane ahead of me
in identical white T-shirts, black shorts,
their legs pumping
in and out of synch,
a visual symphony.

It's strange
BECAUSE
WELL I wrote a 2000 word essay on WHY
but my computer froze (f---ing idiot!)
It's strange BECAUSE
It's slow motion because of the perception of the viewer, not the movement of the bicyclists.
Or not.
Time is perception,
but if there's nothing there to perceive (the bicyclists are gone)
why is that nothing still measured by time. Is it something else?
Or are they just one...
some merging of the other person into yourself, so that you lose that person for a moment, but gain that person as your self,
so time stops because they don't cease to exist in your world -
they don't MOVE AWAY, they stay FOREVER.
heehee.
