More From Hilda Doolittle

Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. it is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. a column and a column brings light between them. to make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist.
Wall Artist Light
The song that i will sing is an old song, so old that none knows who made it. it has been handed down through generations and was taught to me when i was but a little lad. it is now my own song. it belongs to me. this is a holy song (medicine-song), and great is its power. the song tells how, as i sing, i go through the air to a holy place where yusun (the supreme being) will give me power to do wonderful things. i am surrounded by little clouds, and as i go through the air i change, becoming spirit only.
Song Native American Medicine
Like wind-- in it, with it, of it. of it just like a sail, so light and strong that, even when it is bent flat, it gathers all the power of the wind without hampering its course. like light-- in light, lit through by light, transformed into light. like the lens which disappears in the light it focuses. like wind. like light. just this--on these expanses, on these heights.
Strong Light Wind
"it is light that reveals, light that obscures, light that communicates. it is light i "listen" to. the light late in the day has a distinct quality, as it fades toward the darkness of evening. after sunset there is a gentle leaving of the light, the air begins to still, and a quiet descends. i see magic in the quiet light of dusk. i feel quiet, yet intense energy in the natural elements of our habitat. a sense of magic prevails. a sense of mystery. it is a time for contemplation, for listening - a time for making photographs. "

I always think of each night as a song. or each moment as a song. but now i'm seeing we don't live in a single song. we move from song to song, from lyric to lyric, from chord to chord. there is no ending here. it's an infinite playlist.
Song Moving Night
When i was a child, ladies and gentlemen, i was a dreamer. i read comic books, and i was the hero of the comic book. i saw movies, and i was the hero in the movie. so every dream i ever dreamed, has come true a hundred times... i learned very early in life that "without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend - without a song." so i keep singing a song. goodnight. thank you.
