27 may 2018 cinematic lightning
...while walking towards Golders Green the night sky is filled with a flat
dark blue cloud... quite smooth... unlike the jumbled white clouds of
daytime thunder...
...in and on this vast cloudplane are several distant lighting
flashes... each silent... and each apparently projecting a jagged
profile or horizon... as if from one landscape to another... and as if a cosmic
cinematograph... capable of connecting distant universes... (as in the
most thoughtful of science fictions)...
...all this being only a second feature to the everyday magic of this
overground/underground railway... and above the double-decker bus
station... these transport systems (so-called)... being also means to
link locations previously isolated... and thought to be divine...
all-powerful... and direct evidence of gods and other beings more
material...
...flash-flash in silent wonder... or constructed
sciences of imaginary humanism... or evident nonsense thank goodness...
for this is only the beginning...
[the last two paragraphs could be signs of a new humanism (or reality) that is both imaginary and poetical... ]
