POEM 5 IMAGES

Experience is all-encapsulating. Sensory - visual, taste, sound, touch, taste - feeling is combined with all these. This is why I put up pictures too with the poems. I did think that it would be cool if I could send smells and taste too - that is what the imagination is for, I suppose. This is the interesting thing for me about poetry and fiction, as the reader's perception and understanding is so involved in gaining something from it. In comparison, film gives you everything, but in 2D from the director's perspective.

“All our knowledge begins with the senses, proceeds then to the understanding, and ends with reason. There is nothing higher than reason.” Immanuel Kant

Positioning

Legs in shape

Inviting you in

The depth of you

Is overwhelming.

I scream in silence

Losing my poise

We join.

Perhaps we will never end.
