Nature’s sharpest weapon isn’t claw or flame—
it’s the law that names chaos and turns it into chains.

To name is to play—
a thing is in May
a whispering bud.
In April, less so,
yet—should you let go
it stretches the clouds
between silken doubts:
a name for the youth.

An outgrown dream
bears of forgiveness
the lively stream
for all that’s endless,
called as true—
is dew of flowers
just next to you.

Will take you far
beyond the doubts
where songs are wings

and friends are stars.
Above the clouds
time runs in strings

and that’s so sweet
that being too far.

Aeolian Diptych I: Via Negativa No Rage Guile Villainy Substance or Essence - Yet we Punch holes in forests, Pulverize homesteads, Blast digit tips to Necrotic. Heat and light are Visible; Sun and shade Manifest; Spring and tide Rhythmic and real. But We are Nothing before Something. With Properties lent to us - Size, shape, taste, sound - Nothing is our own. With our Core coreless, We gave your Kind its first Scent of the Ineffable – its first Tang of the Numinous. We grip you - You can Never grip us. We move you - You can Never move us. Impossible to Ignore - Nothing: Nothing more Intimate, Nothing more Remote - Puff of Wind that Brushes your Jugular. ©Jan Peters/Solivagant Wisdom, 2026

#Nothing
Negative space, privation, the fertile void of possibility. You decide!

I’ll wait for a ship
to dock on the clouds—and ask
will it ever come?

Tell me, is midlife a dream—or waking from one?
I’d say the dream is to wake again tomorrow.

Yes, that was the interpretation of rupture…wish I was unable to describe those feelings :)

Makes sense.

How do comets taste?

She Dreams of Me She Dreams of Me moves through war, love, and eternity. From occupied Norway to the towers of modern Wall Street, a silent witness gathers human lives—their deaths, their music, their longing. Beyond ...

Thanks for being always open minded and supportive!
Your prompts are fun :)

Dear @hool415.bsky.social
For #promptcombo and #tracks I leave a dialogue between Rilke (he’s in italics) and me.

Such a beautiful pairing!

Poynton Terrace you descend wide stairs a dark interior sunlight through coloured glass giving weight to your brief smile as you step from the edge unsure

This week's #promptcombo #moment took me back to a poem I wrote in 1998 and was part of my first collection in 2006 (eek)! Thanks @rfsmith.bsky.social for reminding me, it was nice to revisit it and St Kevin's Arcade back home in Auckland!
