MERCATOR
Dude who in a cartographic essay
Made Canada five times bigger than USA,
And Greenland with room to spare
Much bigger than Africa way down there.
But his meridians all went parallel -
So when sailing your carrack or caravel
You could follow straight lines to get there:
Which proved at last the world was square.
You are day and night to me—
Much more,
My before
And yet to manifest
Within You I circulate
While beyond You
Still more of You
I seek to elevate—
The vine of my spirit
Reaching up, and then
Further,
Each leaf of me suspended
The craving
Is light—
I am in balance…
Elevating for illumination
All of me
Grasping and lifting,
Following transparency
Of new veins
And meridians,
Seeking mastery
While saturated
With love....
