I'm Back at the Old Canal

jopomojo ·

2024/09/12

I'm back at the old canal waiting for the sunrise to sneak its way through the lovely chaos of clouds making the beginning of the day difficult and fascinating. The sap of my veins hasn't dried up quite yet. Summer still has some blood flowing in it, and before it's over I'll break open the sky's lock to find the red horizon. The canal will continue to flow a while longer from its river source far upstream until they shut it off and let the sprinklers run dry and the backyard gardens wither. Until

The Calm of This Sunrise Scene

jopomojo ·

2024/09/09

The calm of this sunrise scene masks the shock, terror, and laughter that lingers, muted, in the dawn. The quiet boats here anchored contain a cargo of trembling carried over from the big bang. A calamity of wealth afflicts the shopping cart of dawn: the remembrance of the fading season, remembered as if gone even before it has left, loss and grief anticipated. Yet in the fading echo of the explosion of summer there is a substratum of mirth, a settling of the earth into a placid smile and hum and

There May Be an Ideal Lake

jopomojo ·

2024/09/08

There may be an ideal lake (see the concept of platonic form) hovering above the broken, beautiful reality of the lake that splashes at our feet, that we feel in the end-of-summer sunrise now breaking into colour and warmth, with an awareness of the doubling bubbling up from the source of all things, perpetuating a joyousness like that of the youngest daughter held aloft by the father and flung with joy for a splash landing on the liquid surface of things as the September flowing brings its laughter

The Tipping Point of Dawn

jopomojo ·

2024/09/01

the tipping point of dawn like a boomerang returning but flying just beyond the reach of your outstretched fingers as the morning proceeds in unostentatious yellow the bright hem of a dark skirt of clouds above the eastern horizon concealing credit for the accomplishment and only reveling humbly in the golden changing of the night into day of the day into many days of the summer season suddenly into awareness of yellow autumn coming to cool and calm your dreams prepare you for winter and the long

Each Person Is a Genius

jopomojo ·

2024/08/30

Each person is a genius — extruded from the collective unconscious, the family of things and non-things burgeoning into the light of morning, the lovely light of the dawn. Imagine a boat anchored through the night now awakening with a family on board ready to break their fast and hoist their sails, each member playing a part in the yin and yang of the embarkment into the final joys of the summer tapering down to its end, the current and wind ready to take them towards the ocean, towards the glowing

The Color of Morning

The Struggling Sun Well Risen

jopomojo ·

2024/08/16

The struggling sun well risen looks at me like a glum lover tired of grinding through the smoke and grit of another sky in the grim infinity of possible skies of August. Through the trees, we exchange glances, the sun seeming insubstantial compared to my solidity, my own air-conditioned skin feeling the faint beginning of the summer's smoldering end.

The Sky Is Crazy With Swallows

jopomojo ·

2024/08/12

The sky is crazy with swallows, purple martins writing gibberish across the complicated skyline, feasting at the pinnacle of their northward travels here on the island of Montreal. Like them I too am a migrant and although I can take my best shot and likely find that I am able to bring the king a pheasant for his table and so prove myself a capable fellow I also need to beware of my tendency for recklessness, wheeling about the sky of my mind like these martins, pronouncing and mispronouncing words
