Komorebi - Mystic Living Today

Komorebi

With the fullest thrust
Of a water bomb blasting
In the dark forest

Yeah, Just Because I Could

I fucked the intern girl in office
I hid smoking guns in Bagdad
I followed him to Iraq like a running dog of war
I took billions of public yuan into my own pockets
I sold dozens of generalships for at least twenty million each
I am tampering with rockets and nuclear warheads
I have sent soldiers to Dohlam and demanded more Chinese investments
I have dispatched subs into South China Sea to join the game
I am to revise the constitution and institution to start another war in Asia
I will…


Public Will

An uncontained body of water, always ready
To come and embrace you, licking your feet
If you stand high
But drown you if you remain
Low at the bottom

[Or the other way around:

If you stand high above, I will retreat afar
From you, but come to hug you
When you are still low below
Just to show my noble
Friendship]

Chip

You’ve died, but will live again
As a robot. If life by chip,
Life by circuit, life by muted moment
Antennals;
More, coordinating machine.
You will perceive what you contact:
Mega-Physics.
How you will be sensing:
Every sensible, sensitive signal.
You recognize, Human.
I recognize, i.hooyeau.
Processing the info.
The way a scientist does
A human mind does.


Hiking in the Forest

I stepped aside to let the cyclist pass
You are welcome! I said. He actually
Had said nothing, but I assumed he had
Said Thanks! And a light feeling swept
Through my heart, You are welcome
As I continued to follow the trail
Into the depth of Pacific Spirit Forest
Each step trodden on the leaves
And a breeze blew through the komorebi
You are welcome in this kingdom of trees, the
Whole natural world I was in, together with
All my heart and soul. You are welcome
To share the tranquility of an unmanned realm, where
The entire physical world wrapping itself up
In me, and beyond all roads. You are welcome
To penetrate my private moment of space and, in particular
You are welcome to cut short this line of thought


On Mountain

Once in a while, just to reenact memories
The mind set forth beyond itself and its environment
Travelling afar. He cried like a young rooster:
Cock-a-doodle-doo. (Cocks do not coo, but I will)

If only the mind could raise itself to the top
Of a mountain, whirling upwards, joining the glows
In the east. Instead it falls slowly and softly
To the ground, drifting around, finally

Settling down at the mouth of a tremendous cave
It was meant for, near nothing that is recalled
And never is there a shadow, let alone a shadow’s
Shadow, as Plato sees it, reflecting the inside

Ventifacted out there at a spot of
Oblivion, where the passer-by wonders
How it happened to be, and
Be there as if never had been

e.Venture

after downloading all my
consciousness, sub or sur, I tried
to upload it onto the inner page of
a Douglas fir, an arctic wolf
a fish fossil, a quantum robot, or
a mountain dew but without success

so I inserted the u disk back
into my head, when an electric
black out just happened. That’s
how I lost all my memories
my entire selfhood inside out
