Narcissus Revisited


Into the limpid pool -
reflection,
Two eyes stared
into
Two eyes;

Epiphany -

In eclipse movement,
Suddenly
sight,
Growing into Sight,

As writers write -

Sight,
Into existence,
A back ground presence,
Everything
is
Composed,

From the rose,
Spiraling & smiling
to the rows -
of tomb stones
Smiling & spiraling,

Everything engineered
here-
Everything
dear,
to the depths
of
conception,
at
the inception.

I just asked myself...  What if the gaze of Narcissus suddenly became a form of transcendental meditation & he received illumination, having an epiphany, regarding the underwriting of his existence, into the underwriting of all aspects of existence?

That would be pretty far out.

(this write started out as an insight into the writing at the background of so much of our reality...  or actually, every aspect of our reality...  

SO...  I was watching American Horror Story Double Feature, one of my favorite shows...  This season is shaping up to be a classic...  but yes...  I just really dig the writers of the show...  and this season actually involves writers & deep insights into culture...  deep-deep...  

There came a time when I began to see writing behind Hollywood, as well as blue prints behind buildings...  but I was just thinking about that as I watched AHS...  I was just thinking about where writers go when they write...  that was where I was going to take this write then I took it somewhere else but...  I want to do a write about that...  its like...  

If we believe in muses & intellectual daemons...  pertaining to writers...  and if writers shape culture/society...  might we say that by implication, so to, do intellectual daemons/muses...

That really takes me places...
