- The moment you dig in a very dry corner and a sleeping salamandre appears in the ground, so beautiful

J'apprécie beaucoup la dimension spirituelle de ce texte, en ce sens que, dans la mystique chrétienne, le royaume du ciel est au-dedans du "coeur" (et non là-haut au-delà des nuages);
RépondreSupprimerde même que dans les traditions orientales, l'expérience de l'éveil de la conscience survient au "coeur" de l'instant présent.

at that time, when we all close our eyes lid. when the tide of life is still rushing somewhere. when we say shit or fuck and try to pass it on. under cover. behind closed doors like others. I wake up and realize it was all a dream dream come true.
