Spaces distance themselves-- to isolate the purpose of longing. A depth where memory forgets itself...spaces backwashed lucidly. Genuine seeing sets in--as if a searchlight disconnected from its lighthouse...swimming toward the horizon's conclusion. Longingly, as it is to bleed and be bled for...the exchange of the heart's chalice. Eyes are lit by the asking of salvation...so many eyes...tenderly placed for their hapless duration. Spaces distance themselves--to isolate the purpose of longing...it is therefrom a genuine seeing sets in. How else may emotion unfold...how else may this temple stand amidst the wilderness? A temple destined to die into life... as life is irreducible from a genuine seeing.

Searchlight Disconnected From Its Lighthouse
Spaces distance themselves-- to isolate the purpose of longing. A depth where memory forgets itself...spaces backwashed lucidly. Genuine seeing sets in--as if a searchlight disconnected from its lighthouse...swimming toward the horizon's conclusion. Longingly, as it is to bleed and be bled for...the exchange of the heart's chalice. Eyes are lit by the asking of salvation...so many eyes...tenderly placed for their hapless duration. Spaces distance themselves--to isolate the purpose of longing...it is therefrom a genuine seeing sets in. How else may emotion unfold...how else may this temple stand amidst the wilderness? A temple destined to die into life... as life is irreducible from a genuine seeing.
