It had the sound, the cadence, of something that Hesse would have Zarathustra speak about. I think the concept began in that time of my existence; when I was first able to read, though perhaps not to understand Steppenwulf. And, contemplating, with friends — in thought and being — the essence of the Shadow of a Hand falling on the Back of the Skull. Imagine that feeling, that presence of vitality: if you can, you will see God. We seek to live in the discovery of what is behind us. Behind and within us.

How it all relates. Like a fashion of empathy. Having a hand in the formation of ego. And id. strike the happenings. And the cultural exchange. Like the future of the vision.

And I finally feel the winter. And its cold. And its darkness.
Twenty five pairs into what is called the AZImUTH Project. And how the words are so exchanged. Easing into the hot closed window sun Thinking about weaknesses in the body. Blood and Bones. Muscle and Flesh.
Chant down Babylon.
Children on the swing outside in the park. They swing in the stars in the moon and in dreams of peace. Slow and slow they make the earth come to them. The sun quiets. Frozen gravity. Feeds the stands of spine.
AZImUTH, two infinite half-spaces, juxtaposed.
