Imaginary Dokusan: Perfume - Chase Twichell

[Lawrence Robinson]

Imaginary Dokusan: Perfume

Crushed lime halves in the sink, 
a wood match's sweet-acrid strike...

I keep looking for things with a beauty
that's not incidental, but have found none.
Because of this, the difference between sensuality

and being fully awake in the moment
is often unclear to me, for example

the sun's smell of ripening
even in things still immature—
which of the two pleasure is that?
