HAIKU DIALOGUE – Going for a Walk – rivers and clouds – commentary
u nabujaloj rijeci sotona
---------
a cloud of angel wings
in the swelling river the Satan
Hrvatska
Ovaj haiku u dva retka suprotstavlja dvije slike na vrlo uspješan način. Ova se pjesma poigrava s našom percepcijom i pokazuje da je sve što se događa priča koju nam priča naš um. Tumačimo i stvaramo vlastitu stvarnost s vlastitog stajališta. Dakle, postoji li objektivna stvarnost? Tu su oblaci i rijeka koja bi mogla izazvati razornu poplavu. Oni su dio ciklusa vode. Neutralan, prirodni fenomen. Ne postoji dobro i zlo. Tako je kako je. Voda postaje oblaci, postaje rijeka, postaje ponovo oblaci.
-----------------
This two-line haiku juxtaposes two images in a very successful way. This poem plays with our perception and shows that everything that happens is a story that our mind tells us. We interpret and create our own reality from our own point of view. So is there an objective reality? There are the clouds and a river that could cause a devastating flood. They are part of the water cycle. A neutral, natural phenomenon. There is no good and evil. It is what it is. Water becoming clouds, becoming the river, becoming the clouds again.
