Patterns

7/2/2013

 
Waking not so early, I walk to the wood and am struck by patterns: how the fold in the earth down which the stream runs resembles the crease in a lover's, another human's, a mother's, a father's skin.

How the beech trunk resembles the leg of an elephant, the trunk of a human.

The ivy: my fingertips.

From the contact with a human there is an extra frisson. But there is still a frisson here with the tree.

And is that to do with qwirl?

The frisson is the glint and glisten, the thwock of connection established, of a modern drawer doing its closing thing. The qwirl of a pattern recognised.

I have a sense that, behind the veils and bubbles and projections and transferences, there is just connection, recognition, or pattern or love.
