rāz dār am / رازدارم
Darian Razdar / 2021 - ongoing
From The Structure of Scientific Revolutions
An evolving body of work, راز دارم (rāz dār am) is an exploration of names and secrets. Fibre, print, and poetry. Included are select works and documentation of work-in-progress.
Darian Razdar self- printed and published a poetry zine of the same name in June 2021. The poem reads:
From earth into the heavens
constellations too faint to picture
there are certain futures
without border nor wall
hidden gardens
in native lands
where secrets ring
unbound and true.
Twelve months in one year pass
stars make sense
wading thru four seasons
drawing me a map
several secrets
held, dealt, and confessed
dark blue depths entice
incite — mysterious
what lies beyond this tepid
tarn — celestial
perfumed waters reflect
so still my gaze
in one fell plunge
dance stars
among my buoyant body
a revolution collects
in my orbit
whole galaxies whirl in rays
I bathe in such heavenly forms
truth crashes into beauty
and becomes
that special thing.
My secret.
Me.
