Yesterday is but today’s memory, and tomorrow is today’s dream. (Gibran) and each day, thank God is different. A variety of cereals for breakfast, diverse weather, events, people encountered; aches and pains in new places; mood unique, behaviour ditto. This amphigory takes us nowhere except around in circles.
Stating the obvious
I parody philosophy
in meaningless words
Amphigory: a nonsensical piece of writing, especially one intended as a parody
The prompt for Octpowrimo 6 is Life Changes, and at dVerse for Haibun Monday we were given two quotes and a self-portrait of
artist/poet Kalil Gibran as inspiration

Not meaningless, I think, all those little details that make up our lives. 🙂

That is the haibun format: a short piece of prose plus a three line poem.

Sometimes there is meaning in meaningless words. It’s one of those Zen things, I think!
