Invisible Poetry

.

Ursula K. LeGuin


    -Truth is a matter of imagination.


Analysis: That puts a dent in mostly everything written. The truth of the poet is metaphorical, encased in allusion that makes everything equal one great and whole reality-cobbler. Science supposedly empirically based and "quantitatively proven", faith is magic based (miracle proven), history artifact based truth (often revised for slant).

Imagnation is as infinite as all the minds that have ever thought anything. A nice idea to float inside.

Truth


In a bottle, hermetically

sealed, canned, time

capsuled, what is relies

on perception.

.

Cast a rock in mud. No

ripples, no pretty image

for time and communication

or infinity conceptioning

as metaphor. The mind

that dies at birth thinks,

"Oh! So that was reality." 

.

Truth just might, afterall,

be little bird tweeting

in tree.
