Extracts of Existence

From William Markiewicz's Extracts of Existence¹, a book of original aphorisms illustrated by the author.

Our thoughts at each moment appear and disappear
At each moment of our life we are:
A painter painting his masterwork in the air
A poet singing his sonnets in the desert
The ocean hiding pearls in its depths.
At each moment we brush against the world of nothingness
Where the dead, and the never conceived, are one.
