Poem Artwork

When we look at things,

As they differ, we see them

To be different, as for instance,

Heaven and Earth, fire and water,

Male and female, elder and younger.
 
When we look at them,
 
As they agree, we see them
 
All to be a unity.
 
 
We look at the unity
 
And do not perceive where
 
They have suffered differences;
 
We take no true knowledge
 
Of the things for which
 
Our ears and eyes are
 
The appropriate organs, but

Our minds delight in the harmony

Of all their excellent qualities.

 
The changes and
 
Transformations of things
 
Are only the developments
 
Prescribed for them
 
By scholars and scientists,
 
And we, poets and writers,
 
Keep fast hold
 
Of the Author of them.

For this poet, it's not about being the "author of them" but being the reflective instrument finding empowerment present when words are well crafted. Anonymity from self is born on the experiences of self and that which has been observed. Reflection. But, that's just me.

As authors and poets, we record what we see and what we perceive. If we see unity in diversity, all the better. John

Methinks that authorship holds no bounds. However, for an author to be heard (read) they must write or speak coherently.

Coming to a logical conclusion, gathering data and/or completing something physical or electronically that works does communicate coherently, authored or not.

Poets and scientists keep making existence wider, deeper and more wonderful. Major, among the wonders, are those factions which try so desperately to limit, strangle and retard those treasures.
