Landscapes

If writing is seeing from the outside

Then what landscape is the text?

Is the music the room or is it only the room it is played in?

If the landscape is not a room, since one needs walls to create a room,

Where does the landscape end?

We cannot see the landscape because we are always in it.

We cannot see ourselves because we are always inside ourselves too.

So we are stuck with the words.

And the words have no end

"A landscape is the visible features of an area of land, its landforms, and how they integrate with natural or man-made features. Combining both their physical origins and the cultural overlay of human presence, often created over millennia, landscapes reflect a living synthesis of people and place that is vital to local and national identity. The character of a landscape helps define the self-image of the people who inhabit it and a sense of place that differentiates one region from other regions. It is the dynamic backdrop to people's lives. Landscape can be as varied as farmland, a landscape park or wilderness."
