The context of creation: 
a room where a shy sun shines 
for a few hours.
Isolation.
The winter.
Uncertain times.
Stretches of hours.
Tensions.
I look at a candle.
it redesigns its shape as it wears out.

I Am the one who fuels the fire
I am the one who consumes it
I am flame
Devoured by itself.

Its glow
Like a wound in the dark.

Mood Exhibit - Song for The Decorous

This Ableton Live-devised piece takes its title 'Tall,' from the first word of a haiku poem by John Hinks, a regular contributor of music and poetry to this Naviar community, who has recently passed away. Thank you for your gifts of art, @flownblue.

'Tall, wide-arching trees
Assume a cathedral shape
Until darkness falls'
 
I found out today that John passed away. John participated in the Naviar Haiku challenge for over 4 years, almost every week, and shared both his music and poetry with us. He'll be deeply missed.

"John Hinks, aka FlownBlue, was a prolific and talented composer, and a regular participant in the Haiku challenge. Aside from his solo project, John was also involved in multiple projects: ‘Windfall Light‘ (with Jim Tetlow), ‘Abstract Blue‘ (with Kevin Buckland), ‘Light Fragments‘ (with Steve Escott), Szukanie (with Michał Wojciechowski), and Meadowlight (with Emma Reed)."

Until darkness falls (naviarhaiku536)

In the Ancient Egyptian Enigmatic Book of the Netherworld the symbol of the serpent swallowing its tail represented the beginning and end of time, and the formless disorder which surrounds the orderly world. In Norse culture it was Jörmungandr, the world-serpent. In the 15th century alchemical text the  Chrysopoeia of Cleopatra, it represents balance of opposites. For Jung, the embrace of the shadow self. And what does it represent for you?
