“There is no easy way from the earth to the stars” Seneca

Look up!

AsideFebruary 8, 2023February 7, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper12 Comments

When we are in thought we look down When thought is in us we look up Where do thoughts and ideas come from? Why don’t we act on them with alacrity? Is it that old humbug fear of scarcity? And if we do act upon them Does the universe, rejoicing in the fact it got […]

If you notice a full moon in the room

AsideFebruary 6, 2023February 5, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper9 Comments

It was the sheer intensity of its disconcerting stare even more so than the light, which was significant I could feel its attention As persistent as a mosquito in a warm room on sundown it bit me – not on the leg, or the arm but directly within my heart waking me from deepest sleep […]

The frame in which we find our selves

AsideFebruary 4, 2023February 3, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper11 Comments

“Your energy is sacred” The words hit me from a sign in a shop that I had been wandering around in on holidays. It was a beautiful shop. The kind full of heavy linen, textures, candles, delicious aromas, chunky chrystals, natural fibres. Everything was in muted tones of cream, brown, auburn, black, white, beige. Tassles. […]

Sore Should/ers

AsideFebruary 3, 2023February 2, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper14 Comments

They sit heavily Sharp bones protruding Digging into my shoulders where they alight and come to rest One after the other, weighing me down The things I shouldn’t have said Shouldn’t have done Shouldn’ts are heavy and sharp for sure But there are things that trouble me even more Keeping me awake, eyes to the […]

Notes from the butterfly

AsideFebruary 2, 2023February 1, 2023 Athousandbitsofpaper17 Comments

Days fly by What a funny thing to say I peg washing Laundry flapping wildly in this January wind Correct myself again It’s February already So it is a February wind that beats the clothes about so fiercely How do days fly by? We don’t notice them passing See their trails in the sky Instead […]

Deathly Differences

AsideDecember 15, 2022December 14, 2022 Athousandbitsofpaper16 Comments

This morning I am thinking about truth. It’s such a bendable issue, such a dangerous issue. We each live according to our very personal version of truth, but when our truth kills someone, or infringes on their sovereignty, who is to blame? Truth? This week two young police officers were shot and then shot again […]

The Dangers of Our Innate Artificial Intelligence

AsideDecember 3, 2022December 2, 2022 Athousandbitsofpaper19 Comments

One word begets two Two words beget a cluster And before we know it a concept is formed It all happens in our head With nothing being said Filters and blinkers Tunnel vision blindness We call it preference But it’s probably the bias of a thousand small decisions We aren’t even aware of making *I […]

The core of things

AsideNovember 30, 2022November 29, 2022 Athousandbitsofpaper12 Comments

Who were you two hundred years ago? Who will you be two hundred years from now? I eat my apple quietly enjoying the colours of the sky, the deepening evening silence I toss the core to the ants that circle beneath the tree After all they need to eat too They circle it greedily, and […]

Keeping the dragon within

AsideNovember 29, 2022November 28, 2022 Athousandbitsofpaper15 Comments

Here within the parameters of me I walk Unable to transform into anyone different At least Overnight Here, with all the experiences which have brought me to who I am Despite discarding as often as I become aware Of self defeating habits and impulses Here, is where all that was has delivered me to Now […]

Wu Wei – The art of not forcing

AsideNovember 28, 2022November 27, 2022 Athousandbitsofpaper18 Comments

All that there is Letting it be Not forcing anything Difficult for a control freak like me I was thinking too much Writing in my head; it had become a wastepaper basket that crinkled with noise every time I turned it Then I came across this video And emptiness settled in It’s peaceful when we […]
