Zywa 1h
People are watching

on their screens, just humbug, no --


disasters today.
Collection "Within the walls"
Zywa 1d
To sustaining tones, the material
world draws a trail in smooth loops
from a bottle hanging askew
on its navel string and running

empty over the blue rug
of awareness
of all who are there
A pendulum thought

More and more light shines
through the bottle and the wind
in our senses
wipes out the patterns

we have repeated
into a magical eight
of insight into the infinite
course of our lives
Concert "Le monde à l'envers" with a harmonograph (Lissajous figures; Foucault pendulum) in the Organpark, on shakuhachi (Harrie Starreveld) and ***** (Johan Luijmes), performed on January 14th, 2017

Collection "ORG anp ark" #85
Zywa 1d
The yellow-brown waves

of the muddy murky surf:


crowned with a white fizz.
Collection "Local tardiness"
Zywa 1d
Everyone would like

to preach and judge at some point:


own ethics come first!
For Lotte W, with a photo of Paul dressed as a clergyman (December 11th, 1993, Oirschot)

Collection "Local interest"
Zywa 1d
Cauliflower, figs,

the dissecting room Kitchen:


I cut brains and hearts.
Collection "The climbing house"
Zywa 2d
Peace, in a bed
in Amsterdam, kneeling
or with clenched fists

eternally awaited, preserved
in hearts and thoughts
about people who behave
differently than you wish
people who have to take care

of their well-being and can
only dream their visions
cannot realise these even
with combined efforts
The world is too big for that

Close by you can smell the wind
and go along with the seasons
Close by you can, within
the limits of your needs
safely open up to another
For Ruud J

John Lennon and Yoko Ono's 'Bed-In for Peace' at the Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam, March 24th-31st, 1969, during their honeymoon

Collection "Summer birds"
Zywa 2d
They are free, the birds

upon the gown of the state --


free to fly around.
Statue of Baruch Spinoza (2008, Nicolas Dings), with the quote "Het doel van de staat is vrijheid" ("The purpose of the state is freedom") from Spinoza's "Tractatus theologico-politicus" / "Theologico-Political Treatise" (1670)
