It takes 600 years to create a musical tradition

and 6 seconds to destroy it.

(3 seconds at most.)

Then we begin

Purposeless Unity

What is this force that
drives the visible world


alleged "green fuse"

or "dark matter"


*

is "god" a more important word than "and"?


or "the"?



*

I am not a Theist. I am a "The"ist.



First principle: Purposeless Unity.


Words--like paint. But not paint wet in a can or dry on a surface.

Rather, some place in between.


We find unity in the purposeless beauty of the commonplace.
