Here is a world of quiet sunlight--
careful, lightly, breathe only softly, before you sighs the bones of a sacred quiet, below you breathes a blue drained pond. Look, the air is making water out of sunlight. Listen, and you’ll hear breathing. Here is a world of quiet sunlight, olive groves stretching centuries before you, a ruin deep inside the heartbeat of things, the soul-sound quickening, the blood deep-rushing, look and they will be behind you. Is that your reflection breathing, or a shadow passing over the sun?
