Indra's Net

An ancient vision of Indra's Net

Singing To The Moon

When you told me this,
told me of Indra and her
net of jewels, stars
without end and each
showing all the rest inside,

when you said those things
I found my lightning,
summoned my heart's larger voice.

So too, will you sing
for the ghost moon’s love.

  1. The bottom picture reminded me of a nerve synapsis.

    As above... so within? ;-)

    The poem is sublime.

    1. It is actually an image of the matter distribution of the universe at a very large scale, a computerized projection of data to illustrate both the detailed variation and the overall uniformity depending on the scale you choose to view things. So yes, As above so within.

    2. Michelle, I think you knew that. I just am thinking of the other readers who may drop by.

  2. I did know it :-) ..but it's still worth saying.

The chicken crossed the road. That's poultry in motion.
