an incremental journey

the over-mind would know
would not notice polarity
the neural bridge scintillating
with glints of cellular communion

light defines gestalt
against a filtered shade
melds to color emergent
from the unknown
beaming its own lumination
striving to subdue the shadows
and banish ambiguity

from low in my spine
the light ascends
each turbine correspondent
to its unique energy
opening to
every sentient hue
listening to spherical music
as it magnifies
and justifies its brightness
and celerity

it’s a matter of heeding
the subtle language
a vibratory chatter
inside a velvet box
humming

I hear it
I swear
I can
