The Long Gaze (Untitled Poem)

a long gaze upward
infinity is here
the moon and me

I wrote the poem on January 27, 2024. It was visualized by DALL-E via Microsoft Designer (Bing).

What mattered more to me was the sense of being lost in the vastness, and that the moon offers comfort. The relationship with it is crucial. The moon gives me strength and a sense of security in the face of the apparent terror of infinity. He is a real friend.

it’s already here

Some Moonlight (Untitled Poem)

by
Some Moonlight (Untitled Poem)

only some moonlight
nothing else—
in the night

The poem was created on April 2nd, 2024. Image generation by DALL-E and Microsoft Designer via Bing.

The poem creates a quiet, contemplative atmosphere through its simplicity and precise choice of words. It conveys a sense of silence and loneliness, as "only some moonlight" suggests that moonlight is the only visible element in the darkness. This evokes a feeling of emptiness and isolation, as if the night remains infinite and untouched.

The minimalism and clarity of the text emphasize a reduction to the essentials, highlighting the vastness and stillness of the night. The short sentence and the use of the dash after "nothing else" enhance the sense of timelessness, leaving room for deep reflection.

Moonlight, often symbolic of something unattainable or fleeting, evokes a sense of melancholy and introspection. It seems as though the speaker finds comfort in the solitude of the night, accepting its emptiness and losing themselves in its quiet, timeless beauty.

About the Emptiness of Night

The emptiness of night, ah, what a curious feeling that is! You know, when darkness falls and the world seems to hold its breath, there's this sense of vastness that creeps in. It's like the night peels away the daytime clutter, leaving behind a canvas of possibilities.
