ast #0067 The substance of Meraki by Hubert Heathertoes & Zan Hoffman

 

A continuation of the previous album - ast#066 Zan Hoffman&Hubert Heathertoes ''Required Mosaique'' deals with the nature of how the inspirations and creative processes influence insights,

 Apollonian contemplation of life with its joys and hindrances.

All saints revile her, and all sober men

Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean—

In scorn of which I sailed to find her

In distant regions likeliest to hold her

Whom I desired above all things to know,

Sister of the mirage and echo.

It was a virtue not to stay,

To go my headstrong and heroic wa y

Seeking her out at the volcano's head,

Amon g pack ice, or where the track had faded

Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers:

Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's,

Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips,

With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips.

Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir

Will celebrate the Mountain Mother,

And every song-bird shout awhile for her;

But I am gifted, even in November

Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense

Of her nakedly worn magnificence

I forget cruelty and past betrayal,

Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall.

To my muse...the one I love the most
