Sublime Suite
In this muitimedia video the music preceded the video, then the poems. After creating the video I remembered a poem, Sublime, I wrote when I asked a patient how she was feeling which reminded me of the Basho poem
Sublime.
She was feeling
as fine as frog's hair.
When I attempted to grab
her intent, she slipped
beneath some lily pad
and I lost her hidden there.
This sublime poem by Basho, translated by Allen Watts, is Japan's most famous poem.
The old pond
A frog jumps in:
Plop.
