The Journey Within

To walk in Nature Is a marvel,

A lesson in creative diversity.

But my mind takes me INTO Nature,

Like a mini cam entering the stoma of a leaf,

Observing the structures of its molecules,

Congestions of atoms

Shining like stars

With their own planetary systems.

Microcosms…

Within the microcosm…

Within the macrocosm…

Within ….. ?

Every cell in every bodily structure

Vibrating, pulsing, singing,

Creating a symphony within my head ---

They call it Tinnitus –

(Sounds so high beyond the highest audible note)

And the ever-present OM,

Weaving melodies,

Yes, symphonies,

Notes pulsing,

Now forte, now pianissimo,

Undulating, sweeping phrases

Filling my inner space with sound,

Now swelling,
Now fading.

And in the course of time and activity

The vibrations outside the body

Vie for attention…

And often win.

This is just MY experience,

One of countless monads

With countless experiences…

And in any moment,

G₃ sees all, knows all,

Sighs and laughs.
