Muddled Matrix | Douglas Colston

A muddled matrix: coffins; coal;
trees; and appreciating the view

Old Trees, ©2023 Miroslava Panayotova
Models, standards, examples,
copying, imitating,
appearances and molds?

A glue or a paste
reminiscent of porridge
or eating gruel to allay one’s 
     hunger.

Timber may be associated with
     coffins,
being emotionless,
withering and dying
or plants, shrubs and trees…
coal with cinders from a fire, 
charcoal
or carbon.

To establish or cultivate
peace, harmony, kindness or temperance,
admire, appreciate and enjoy
the stage:
observation and investigation;
reading;
going sightseeing;
playing;
perspective;
concepts; 
appearances;
and maybe even Taoist temples.
