Gogyoshi Poem, Nr.04 — Cold Wind Blows Hot

Love this ! From one who seems to have a fight with all things technological .. hehe

I guess we used to 'fight with Nature' -- and then the promise of technology to 'subdue Nature and make it our slave' { philosopher Francis Bacon (1561-1626) } took over --- but what happened is that technology has become the new 'natural environment' and proved itself to be just as unreliable as nature was perceived to be -- and so we fight with it just the same.    :)) for the RL.

Bravo Josh! The vivid imagery is comforting.

Thank you Gahddess, glad you liked it.

Ah yes indeed Josh...we must keep our humanity...open the pod-bay door Hal!
Cheers...Harry

I know a group of young people initiating a new community in our area and they kept on talking about fasting - being all vegans i thought well, that's kinda to be expected -- but after a bit I realised they were talking about 'fasting' from being on-line with their smart-phones and ipads.

Haha...I'm a vegetarian and I don't own a smart phone...I hate them...I have a rule at my home...phones off, let's talk and laugh...my eldest grandson struggles with it lol. I just have my laptop...and it's off most of the day.
Time to "fast", Josh haha.

I like this type of observational delivery, as if telling the otherworldly spirits this is our time. Nicely done

Thank you Wally, I Iike the way you view it regarding 'otherworldy spirits'. I feel the multi-dimensional natural world must sometimes look at our efforts with technology and think "what ...?" -- but there comes a tipping point where technology becomes too powerful in relation to the natural world, and then for me it gets scary.
