The Coming of the Toads
A good contrast to the poem Utopia, or rather a complement to it. Read here. https://www.brainpickings.org/2017/03/27/wislawa-szymborska-nobel-speech/?utm_source=Brain+Pickings&utm_campaign
I like her map of “Utopia.” Would make a fun (if provincial) board game. But this is stunning: “For all its charms, the island is uninhabited,
and the faint footprints scattered on its beaches
turn without exception to the sea.”
So many questions!
I think I get “A full glass of emptiness” being for Buddha, but Jesus has left me a little perplexed by asking for a “Half pour of IPA”.
Is this a phonetic puzzle you have dropped here Joe?
This afternoon they’re going to sit out with an espresso.
It might have more of a mathematics base than phonetics.
Jesus with too much time on his hands & Buddha with too many hands on his time.
