musings and at times raving of the incoherency of the world to my mind

Evermore


far be it from me to see it
but a girl who has the world
should not at all ever
be in a situation whereas
she might be inclined slightly
to in the very least
come close to shedding a tear




she should be stately majesty
as I deem her in proper domain
which is everywhere and everlasting
soaring over the mountains
rising up from the sea
giving life from the birth
air from the foliage




this one is wonderful
this one is life but for me she resides apart
and I look on to not see reveille in beauty
but her in such undeserved sadness

Oktober Again

Well, it does seem that October (Oktober in this neck of the woods)is here yet again. Last October, I was on month home from the Selter and had no idea what was going on. I had a couple of prospects, but they shortly faded through. So, in two weeks, I will be home again. Again, I will be without plan nor idea what is going on. Maybe I will sacre up some prospects but at this point I am starting to wonder what is going on. Just how logical is it that I will get some job? I am really stuck to wonder what.....



I was looking on my usb stick to find a certain document. I did not locate such a thing but I rolled across some pictures from last summer. I then decided to take a gander at them. It was cool to see them. I was again enthralled by the Keukenhof pictures. That was a nice trip and such a wonderful view of the gorgeous flowers. I just looked at the pictures and wondered. I am really sure what I am wondering, but I have much to wonder about. These flowers here, just seem to enliven my curioisity.

Springtime is a time of things that spring.

Travel Again

Again I was able to bike around. I went to the Zaan area on my day off. It waz cool to be there again in the countryside and the large peaceful parks. It was raining over at the Zaanse Schans but still cool.

Also I saw this snail. Thought that it was cool.

Speculaas

Who needs speculaas when you have Dutch windmill cookies???

I was at the store tonight, really just taking a break from that term paper. And as I perused the cookies I saw it. Dutch windmill cookies. Had to drop those other cookies and get those. Do they taste like speculaas? No, and I did not expect them to either. But they taste ok and since I am not in Holland, they'll do quite nicely.

Wandering Through Life...

What is this that we wander around so. It is quite overwhelming or perhaps enamoring. We can be saved yet still can wander. No longer lost but like sheep without a master wandering to and fro. But we do have a master, great and powerful, true and holy.

To speak of other continuing elements of this world to which we most fall prey. Enamorment with a certain other than our own. Why do we get enveloped so? In the midst of our running to and fro we see some other and drop our step. Some flush profusely and others connive endlessly. Our minds step into high gear with hopings and plannings of something so dear. But to our dismay, unnoticed we go by the derailer of our day. We try and we hope and some even pray. For these things we think good, however evil or sweet our minds might be. For at times we have a short wait and others a long strife. But come it does and dreams are crushed. Dreams, like their namesake, are built on dreams, not elements founded in reality. Crashing through our lives this hope turns to torment. We live yes, but wonder how and why and even if it is worth doing so. But time, the nocturnal enemy, always slips by. Whether through our fingers or hair, gone it must be. Though for some short and others long, a memory our shattered dream has become.

One might think to stop here, but no, on the charade goes. Visions of fancy must again dance through the stage of our minds and play out in some way in our lives. Again, only to be built up and torn down with rue. But we yet continue. Continue to advance we perceive. Where, we are not quite sure but still we know we are travelling onward.

But back to the start. Where are we at? Still proceeding to some goal? Well yes, actually. After all, we are chasing something that is only in our minds but echoes in this world. That is why we never arrive nor grasp. That is why we wander around in the world so lost.
