poem: i am the arrow
by sven at 11:32 pm
I'm in the midst of actually animating the "quick and dirty" film...
Because I'm hunched over in a cold garage for hours on end, I've established a rule that I have to go for a 10 minute walk up Powell Butte every time I finish a clip (usu. approx. 2 hrs). This poem popped into my head while going "up and around." Sort of a chant; influenced by the rhythm of walking, I suspect.
i am the arrow
i am the arrow
have chosen my target
i wake with one thought
move in straight lines
‘til sleep overtakes me
i cut cross the horizon
shot from coiled meditation
through blackness to light
i am the arrow
