The Change
Updated: Apr 25, 2022
Stare into your layers
and peel away mine
We penetrate the canopy
unfolding inflorescence
Torn leaves of a life
expand into constellation
The pattern of a person
Molecular identity
Scattered fragments
cluster into conurbation
projecting, unveiling
striated narrows
Stare into streets
Wander aimless
your canals pour into mine
Our lives compound
My eye meanders
through evolving depths
gravitates towards centre
A door, a chamber, a treasure
My centre reaches out to hold
I am entangled!
Quantum phenomenon
across space and time
Inspired by Ralph Rumney's painting 'The Change' in The Tate Britain, Weston Gallery 1950.
