Tonight’s Haiku: Efficiency and Seeking Beauty 

My most efficient

I get so very much done

And forget beauty

There are days where i get tons of WORK done, which is all well and good. But when I forget to look around me, to grab a photo or write a poem. I notice it when wrap up the day without any new photos. Creativity is everything to me.

Satie is playing: a haiku

Satie is playing
Songs that make me think of spring
The joy of flowers

A bit of a haiku at the end of a busy day. I hope your day was filled with joy and satisfaction.

A Monday Morning Haiku

Walking this morning
Sunlight leading me onwards
Summer’s grace fading

Holding hands in the night: a #haiku

Hand held in the night

Comforting in the darkness

As autumn approaches

In the dark night, I feel rhe call of love, of sanctuary. But to receive and to reciprocate? That’s grace.

A Haiku At Dawn

I watch the sun rise

As I’ve done so many times

Ah! So much beauty.

Tonight’s haiku:

Along the sidewalk
My steps echoing loudly
Now the night has win

The Matrix 4? Some Thoughts From A Geek

Ok, so in geek circles, this is one of the biggest bits of news in ages. Perhaps only dwarfed by Spiderman getting removed from the MCU. Perhaps I’ll touch on that later.

Anyway, there are several things I want to unpack. However, if you’re not up-to-date on this turn, give Looper’s look at this 4 minutes of your time.

So, that being said, and with a dearth of plot details, here’s what I have to say.

First, as Neo and Trinity both die in Matrix: Revolutions and there is a solid messianic theme to the series, I wonder if they we’ll take on the Christian concept of resurrection. I’m not too sure how else to handle this. I have seen (and it’s mentioned in Looper’s video) that there’s some talk of a younger actor playing Morpheus. I don’t see how they’d play that out with the contemporarily aged Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss. I guess we could play out some time-travel thing, but that could be too much of a stretch.

Personally, I’d like to see some deeper exploration of the Merovingian and Persephone, the Key Maker, and the residents of Zion. But especially the Merovingian and Persephone. There’s so much laden within there. Persephone, kidnapped daughter of Demeter, harbinger of spring. Merovingian, the name of a ruling family of 5th to 7th century Franks. And, for characters like this, the name meaning tells us a great deal.

So, what do you hope/wish this movie will cover? Or do you wish the whole thing would be done? Let me know!

In this morning’s rain
I remember these flowers
