Birthday Contemplation

Light spirals down
to enliven matter

Contracted in form
to develop uniqueness.
to become an other

Separation vanity
serves space-time’s
integral game

Oceans of self-bubbles
journeying – acquiring
until the impulse
to return, reconstitute

Reflecting on
Light descending
to grace matter

Working its way free,
alertly unfolding
withdrawing
Remaining
