happiness
is a natural state
when one who rules it
values peace above all else
(art by Olena Klymenko)
motto
03.03
do not even try
to wound the spirits
of nightingales from Persia.
it’s ever a vain attempt
to limit the eternity
нежность открытых окон
ты почувствуешь
нежность открытых окон
(свежий ветер и бабочку света;
теплоту, что жестокому миру
никогда не отнять)
рядом с ними спокойно и просто и верно
рядом с ними свободно дышать
(картина Елены Юшиной)
resonance
softlings re-appear
where a curious nose
shares their springs
(art by Emily Duffin)
2.02
such is an act of experience.
but not the one of books, induced
by smart societies, even the human wise.
i’m listening to wind of sea and steppes
and native flowers and swaying grass.
adorn
adoring is also adorning-
in a way where the essence
blossoms wholly, without a limit
that remains (left after the aches
or a strange fashion of disaffection)
adorning that liberates
true north
knowing is slow, a witness
of a blizzard winter. a deep
that shapes, a river streaming
incense ice. what is below
transcends, what soars above
is breathful grounding-
and lostness sings of harmony:
a fireflying snow to sight.
but i did see true north.
those polar lights of early
childhood, when something showed
how illusions are. each fear
fades away, each loneliness
reflects the timeless. and
what does matter is the honesty
of dancing galaxies from heart.
гармония
звёзды сияют там,
где есть дыхание
слова Иисуса –
вечность в каждом
из нас
(картина Наз Тороян)
mystery
what is considered real
is what remains known
to the senses and seen.
no one grasps the deep:
it is an ever-mystery
to wonder at and
to breathe
(art by Irina Prudnikova)
fly
wings are a delicate happening
yet also a healing hurricane
a soft butterfly effect, a wind
altering breaths, aflutter
with sheltering worlds
a dance through
dimensions
(art by Ayumu Matsuoka)
