To See A Fractal


Fractals in flames
Devour the surface of the eyes

Seeking to burn -
Into the nothingness

Of

Absence origin unnamed

From whence
The symbolized took flight in the skies of the mind

Written in a revelation
Of stars

Shimmering in perception
Becoming

A mind’s sky revealed in stars
Thinking

&

Speaking in stars twinkling
Into a starry

Sky

Of minds made starry
Perpetuating

&

Proliferating

Every fractal

Et Al

Thinking of fractals, and the role of consciousness.  
Thinking of fractals as being in search of an original.
Thinking of the original, as preceding consciousness,
therefore, the fractals would seek to follow consciousness
to a sort of “Big Bang”…  Like telescopes that gaze deeply
into the universe.

Also employing the flames/stars  as universal symbols for fractals,
as flames/stars fundamentally have the shapes of one another,
and seek to delve deeply into the depths of things, as a matter of process,
to the point of reaching nothingness, and then transcending
the self as they ascend into the atmosphere as smoke and vapors.

And how fractals become perpetuated in consciousness,
through perception and transference of consciousness and perception.

And how they are like symbols that become
revelations of the mind…  Where they once more become symbols

and are projected into the universe
where they continuously evolve from symbol to revelation
and back to symbol…

In the pattern of a fractal…

And how understanding the nature of the fractal,
and that the fractal is the basis of our perceived reality,
one might see very deeply into the nature of things.

However…

In so doing, the fractal will react to being seeing.

(Inspired by “Fractals” by LDF & “Lost and (pro)found (a submissive
tale of enlightenment” by Bluevelvete)
