A Heart Needs No Metaphor (图)

(2005-11-12 11:50:48) 下一个

A Heart Needs No Metaphor Poetry prevents one from playing Smart or the know-it-all For the smartest often ends up The foolest of fools Stop looking for an equivalent For the heart outside yourself A pearl? Emptiness? An engine? None of them works as a Heart A heart dwells where heart is suppose to Location! Location! Location! Even the business-minded learns this... The most figurative might be “mirror” Heart like a “mirror?” Why not? A mirror reflects truthfully! A mirror reflects All! But a mirror remains a mirror After the “objects” disappear Passion? Love? Anger? Change? What’s that? Mirrors lack what hearts possess Heart IS the metaphor It cries, bleeds, and even reflects When there is nothing to be “seen!” Love and hate all come pounding in it! Stop looking for an equivalent For this unique organ This Heart of your being that knows Everything and nothing! ::Nov. 2005

artificially, nor with
your own obvious
acknowledgement

by水滴 2005-11-12 17:26:39 回复 悄悄话 How much I love the heart!

How pitiful the heart is viewed as a pump! (At least, I was taught so.:)

How much can a heart hold?

How much can a heart bear?

How much can a heart embrace?

How much can a heart echo?

//

btw. Is the picture a photo of a heart or a paint?

Heart IS the metaphor
It cries, bleeds, and even reflects
When there is nothing to be “seen!”
Love and hate all come pounding in it!
。。。

Stop looking for an equivalent
For this unique organ
This Heart of your being that knows
Everything and nothing!
。。。

!!!!!!!!

thanks!!!
影云 2005-11-12 12:29:00 回复 悄悄话 true . . . :)

illusion does not imply bad or good . . . not everything true is real as an object in a hand . . . many "things" invisible or intangible eternally exists. . .
LTG 2005-11-12 12:24:20 回复 悄悄话 an "reflection" is not necessarily an "illusion"....

an "illusion" could be seen as an "reflection"....

it is up to the "heart" to distinguish...

:)
影云 2005-11-12 12:17:58 回复 悄悄话 yes . . . indeed, it's ineffible . . .

A mirror reflects truthfully!
A mirror reflects All!

but, it's not really true. . . ;) mirror reflection: illusion . . .

LTG 2005-11-12 12:11:33 回复 悄悄话 from "heart," many "topics" spring out ....

thanks!
