You can sometimes see the world just so
You can sometimes see the world just so A certain narrow angle on, Full askance, with indirect intensity -- And comprehend the light of energy -- Shimmering like a dewy web, A shining net of flowing light, Electric diamonds brighting in the breeze Of time and life, breathing reality -- This solid page, as sure as stone, Is as full of emptiness as space -- Its atoms are as rare as stars, Lightly linked by electric Gravity into a galaxy Of paper -- the light, both white and black, Flows through it and from it, Playing a tug of war with your eyes -- Nothing is still, nothing static -- Solidity is just a guise Put on by the river of energy Rushing like the wind through time -- Just as a diamond that never Decays is ever changing with light: As timeless, ephemeral as clouds And rainbows -- so is this shining world! |
