Quoted in the Grove:
Words are but the signs of ideas.
~Samuel Johnson
Uttering a word is like striking a note on the keyboard of the imagination.
~Ludwig Wittgenstein
A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just
Begins to live
That day.
~Emily Dickinson
EndQuote:
By words the mind is winged.
~Aristophanes

captured by the eye
they still stir, alive as then
memories stare out
~
the others outside
the rim of experience
see only a pool

a void lies between,
seekers above and below
hear only echoes

how crazy the world
paging sage of the mountain
aye, I eye, he said
~
Extinct
Enter new post-modern guy
Came to tame her Inner I
Disregard her inner thigh
Waste beauty deny the eye
Exit new post-modern guy
~
Quantum Sight
With each eye seeing
A world into being
All real
His eye is on the sparrow
And to be seen is to be
Quoth Schrödinger’s cat
