Re: .
Hi arka,
I've read this poem a number of times since you posted it a week ago. Lived with it during that time and found it growing on me. Or found myself growing with it.
The midsecton of the poem caught my attention and affinity on first reading:
illusion regrows the body we set sail on
in your skin
moment's thought
hangs loose
Those lines, along with the mysterious al-furud, "the bright single ones" were enough to keep me coming back to the poem. To ponder the sense of self-imposed parameters being bumped into and slowly confronted. I like the way the "real and imaginary" limits are metaphorically embodied and not merely given lipservice as the flotsam and jetsam of mind stuff.

Re: .
dear kat. i am always so thankful for the reads. you read so carefully and so sympathetically that well let's just say i look forward to hearing from you. i was leafing thru this book on complex numbers, one of my mom's books, and started finding lines that made sense. some of this is loosely inspired by buddhist texts meditation practices i keep reading about(and don't practice  ). self-imposed parameters is perfect. confronting and negotiating and maybe exploring those parameters and alternations of the real and the imaginary.

Re: .
dear arkava
i love the dramatic presentation!
clouds trailing days / continuously shrunk to a point - is very expansive & reminds me of the ever expanding skies...
i also like the idea of - illusion regrows the body we set sail on - gives the feel of forever traveling on the high seas with illusion as sail!
it's a mysterious never ending story - that's the feel i get from reading your lovely piece!

Re: .
arka,
I'm sure I didn't spend as much time on this as Katlin, but I did read the comments and responses. Tell us more about what your mom reads; it sounds interesting. I like what you're doing with numbers and words. It's probably worth the effort, though at this point I'm not sure where it's going. I does remind me a bit of the calculas class I had or of some of the science programs, but I also see the bright orange color of the "words" world. I think it would be better if I smoked something before I read it again to free up my mind; or maybe if I meditated. It's always a "trip". Zak
