The Elusive Obvious



In his grand and glorious
book
The Elusive Obvious
our man Moshe
is prattling on about babies,
and he finds
himself
saying something he has said
over and over and over



and he is disgusted to catch
himself repeating one of
his favs
like a robot

" Every time I hear myself say
something by habit as the previous phrase.
I catch myself thinking like a machine,'
albeit maybe a clever one." p. 81


and i can write this
like a robot
too

how to
be in the world of
words
and be
awake

tricky
tricky
tricky

and worth a try
without out it
life is
......
fill in the blank
with some of your old phrases
or let's empty our minds
and see
if anything new
comes
from:

without the awakeness
life
is
........
