Notes About The Poem

Being In Context

(“Before the Door”, 2023, original encaustic)

Being In Context

Open awareness 
Conditioned mind
Two halves of a whole

Like a container and its contents
A sky and its clouds
A heart and its longings

An irreconcilable duality? 
Or simply
The gateway to unconditional love
