Le Grand Bleu

+the knot does not untie from within but frays at the edges, a thread pulled loose by unseen hands+ 

—we do not walk in bodies—we drift in thought, for there is no world but the one the mind dreams—

[form is a trick of light, a fleeting shape of held-together stars] 

And when the hands that bind us let go, we do not vanish—we expand. 

+The gatekeeper crumbles into dust, and the tide rushes in+
