In the rivers north of the future
I launch the network that you
hesitant burdens
written with shadows of stones.
Run the network for what? To catch the fish ... The fish are a symbol of rebirth, of another life. I, therefore, I gain momentum in future, but farther than the next, just north of the future. It is a future eonico not chronological. But you hesitate, you're not with me on this momentum, do not agree with the need for a look that dares to the bitter end, the utopia, the prophecy. I, therefore, I am alone. The condition of the poet / prophet is loneliness. You talk and your words are dark, menacing, no light, no shadows of life, heavy, compared to the grace that would be needed to gain momentum in the distant future to catch the fish darting in the rebirth of new life.
Ivan Illich was very fond of this poem. Stands as the epigraph of a series of interviews published posthumously (The rivers in the north of the future. Testament collected by David Cayley, Verbarium-Quodlibet ) . Writes the editor in the introduction: "The future, being an idol, that one eats when the sky meets with us on this. The expectation of seeking to force tomorrow, hope it opens up his present and prepares for a future in the north of the future. " It is what, in Meridian is called U-topia? So this part of the text "search topological "maps which exist only in a dream, a dream.
