THE RED HEART
THE MAN WHOSE PATH WAS ON FIRE

James Reaney

back  next


I CHING SYMBOL

Duration Progress

The sun passeth from horizon to horizon
....

as doth the steadfast ship
............

from shore to shore,
bearing witness
....

to the seduction of words.
Buried in the character
....

is a system
of thunder and wind, which,
....

governed by laws,
........

returns and subsides, begins
& ends
....

to begin again.
Thru the passage from place to place, and of time itself, the image survives.
The old sages believed it. Plato & his urge toward the eternal.
