Haibun

- Written by: Stephen Bailey
Days and months are the wayfarers of measured time, living in an unimaginable reality
just as the years that slip by. For those who have always known of the self-creating stars which
live drifting with the currents of an everyday truth in which ordinary perceptions are denied,
or leading a horse by the bridle into old age, overturned, the mind thrust into a channel in which
each day is an exploration, the wandering itself the formerly unknowable because then unimaginable
home.
spliced genes
an unnamed seed quickens
the groundwork
