About HOOSH:
From the dust of koans, the whoosh whoosh answer of the clapping
hand, that afternoon, an enormous whoosh heard for several
minutes, white ibis nothing like a whoosh to give a kind of
nervous quality to the whole whooshing at the speed of light
towards death inherent in the calling-forth the same again at
the self-same speed towards death inherent in the calling-forth
moreover at the speed of light towards death inherent in the
calling-forth nighthawk, the whoosh of the tailfeathers calling
out to others of its shaking fingers, accurately whooshing,
in a great backwards whoosh like wrong-way through a telescope
after all! Whoosh whoosh (as my friend Mayakovsky once said to
me), but existence's swoon is gone, snuggled down death's door
swished to things and names Jwwwwooshloo explosin of air from
whew! lungs, hungers in a great backwards whoosh like wrong-way
through a telescope and big storm and a bus flips and no one is
injured. A train swooshes down kindly to buses. The man's
removed from the track and the train lovingly swings back, you
start the life up down death's happy to name things and death's
back you start the life up down, death's wooshed to things and
names, come again?, weight zero, wooshed things names mosh woosh
mooch moose and woosh woosh woosh an AMAZING ASTOUND!
