Notes About The Poem

The Dual Nature

(“Zero Point of Creation”, 2018, original encaustic)

The Dual Nature

The dual nature of reality,
When we look we see a thing
When we don’t it is a wave,
Isn’t a matter of either/or
But one of and/both.

Beyond the simple wonder of this reality
Is the ineffable mystery of what lies within.
What more is there to say
When you have reached the point of origin
The zero point of every thing.
