Gabriele Münter in her old age remembered a landscape she painted when much younger:
‘I quickly sketched the picture that presented itself to me. Then it was like I woke up & had the sensation as if I were a bird that had sung its song.’

Listen, sit. Be grateful for a day
When nothing happens. Time, pure light
And silence, the world looking the other way.

devastated to hear that the poet J. H. Prynne died this morning. Prynne’s work has been a source of fascination, inspiration, puzzlement, & awe for me since ~2011, when his book Kazoo Dreamboats totally rearranged what I believed poetry could be. His poems are a tremendous gift:

"When we have learned how to listen to trees, then the brevity and the quickness and the childlike hastiness of our thoughts achieve an incomparable joy. Whoever has learned how to listen to trees no longer wants to be a tree. He wants to be nothing except what he is. That is home. That is happiness." themarginalian.org/2026/03/0…

What can we gain by sailing to the moon if we are unable to cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves? This is the most important of all voyages of discovery, and without it all the rest are not only useless but disastrous.
