clarity's  mirror

This is a record of one month, August, in the year 2016. I have come to S i l e n c i o, a La Fragua-sponsored retreat at the Convento de Santa Clara, Belalcázar, Córdoba, Spain. Look now into minutes, hours, days, each as it comes. Cook, wash, clean. Divide the days and nights into bells, and birds. Honour the lucidity of trees, the perseverance of the plant. Follow the water, the rosary, canonical hours, Mass. Remember why we sing. Remember. Look.

el árbol lúcido


You see the indivisible when you look at a tree.

It is the history of our breath and exhalations.

we share the same scarred skin,

tree and me.

Air.
