Self Portrait (October 26, 2017)
I feel a change coming on
in the world of ideas,
where life is lived.
Where is there to go
when ideas become
tingled-up in news?
News has become so
ill-fitting to my life of ideas
that life is rendered absurd.
Change will bring upon
a new purpose, adapting
to new spatial parameters.
More space in life provides
room for meaning, not
the removal of the absurd.
Life is absurd, therefore seek
not to remove the absurd,
for meaning is rooted in it.
— kenne
such a poignant poem
