17 Nov: "Forget memory..." by Haiku Frank

Forget memory
And condemn nostalgia
Life lies in living..

  1. ONLY the present exists. We cannot prove the future nor, technically, the past. For it was the present. We can only know each moment as it is. Life, as Haiku Frank describes, is lived now, in the living. Poem written after death of a loved one?

  2. I love the use of the word lie. That was my idea, but someone in the past already had it.

    Life tells non truths in living. This interpretation is a lot more interesting to me. Life is a lie. People are so fixed on the past that life becomes deceitful. Maybe the zombies got it all figured out. Just be. As you mentioned.
