on truth

speaking of others
reveals more about you than
illuminates them

n.b. ‘Your Face Tomorrow’ by Javier Marías is worth a dekko.

On Pain

What hurts us the most:

wounds inflicted by others;

seeing one’s own faults?

On One

Is there any room

For one more on top? I ask

If not, I will walk

n.b. As a ten year old travelling to school I learned that the rush hour bus was often crowded, if not full. Walking on to the next stop, or even the one after next, meant that I had at least tried to change something for when the next bus came along.

It was usually raining.
