Inside water, a water wheel turns.

The star circulates with the moon.

We live in the night ocean, wondering, what are these lights?

You have said what you are.

I am what I am.

Your actions in my head, my head here in my hands, with something circling inside.

I have no name for what circles so perfectly.

~ Rumi

It's published prose from Rumi the great Sufi poet philosopher. The graphic of this publication reminded me, then of course reading it was all the more inspiration for adding it to such mindful discourse.

Cheers!

Thank you so much. I am honored. (I am delighted to see this piece resonated with you. And btw, your support will help me with a book in which this will likely be included.)

I especially like this bit "Now, to exchange our theaters’ contents with one another, we must send concept codes through fricatives and vocalizations (or, in this case, symbols and signs). Sometimes, we weave something akin to a shared reality by exchanging that code." This is the imaginal world of the psyche or soul. It transcends time and space and it is more real than the "physical" world.
