Emanations

Infinitesimal
Our lives set in motion
We watch distant breakers crash
Upon a shifting cosmic ocean

One with the universal
Churning continuum of change
Endlessly we are replenished
And forever rearranged

Depthless we dive
Conscious evolving
Encoded in spiral
From the centre revolving

Eyeless we writhe
Particles weaving
Our lives entangled
With the godhead’s dreaming

From the glow of relic radiation
Filtering through the black eternally
Uncovered from red shifting sands
We can observe our unity

Emanations flow
From the font of creation
Like mites of matter glistening
Through the endless void inane

Mirrored in claw, plant and horn
Reflected in shell, tooth and storm
Fingerprint and dna

What was once being is now becoming
The source of this mystic congregation
The source of this our dappled world

Infinitesimal, we emerge
Our lives set in motion
We watch distant breakers crash
Upon a shifting cosmic ocean

One with the universal
Churning continuum of change

Endlessly we are replenished
And forever rearranged

To consider the singularity
Is to consider ourselves
As an aspect of the universe
Experiencing itself subjectively
