Guided by echoes sonorous in blue, ocher, and amber, its wakefulness is voiced alongside its light-dark cycle, and within these spaces I am both matutinal and vespertine. Its gentle unfolding occurs through each succession of image, and is felt in its steadied pause in breath. Images work as gifts within the poetic signal. Their light-tones extend as unadorned lyric, and are given as visual charis. They appear in us as transformative exhalations, our voices carriers of the knowing, its clouds take shape in a gestured caress. These thread-suns encourage the opening of a center, for divergence, for an unfixed-ness to a particular place or reading,—save for each new sun.
