simple poem

[ogimyto]

I want to describe an apple as red, and juicy,
And not think about the connotation of the apple,
The seeds inside or the tree from which it fell.
I don't want to care about the value of its entropy,
or Original Sin.
I want to enjoy the apple without syntax.

[Cordelia]

...some thoughts that come to my mind..
It brings to  mind the loss of innocence I have with the world.
After my first contact with people, fruit, "inanimate" objects,
I have knowledge and I create meanings and devices to get what I want.
For childhood innocence is lost.
The only way I know how to experience something fresh, be as it may, in a fractured way
is through presence or being in the moment.


Your poem is very interesting,
Thanks for sharing, I hope the apple sauce tasted good 

with best wishes

thanks cordelia that is exactly what i was trying to express, i think. the loss of innocence that comes with knowledge. sometimes i feel like i can never know enough about the world to satisfy myself, then sometimes i wish i could forget everything i know and just enjoy it, sensually and all, without having to think about why or where it's going or where it came from.
