I have seen her, I think, for years
the slow moving projection of celestial thought
swinging through the spheres.
Others see, yes, but with faith.
Their hope of holding some ray
of her conception leaves them
hovering about somewhere between space.
I believe she was made to contemplate.

And I am too young yet.  I came to mind,
it seems, only yesterday.  Born of
the sudden dislocation of what is
and had been, the thing I was
lost its fragile grasp on gravity.
Perhaps I floated here.
But seeing, now, I have no regrets.
Were there others of her kind,
there would be something to forget.

We all have this, this place to hold on to,
from which constructs the plane, dimension,
and time.  And from this, worlds appear.
So it is: the universe may change,
and shift the point, and thus the plane.
But gravity remains.
It just becomes rearranged.

I have seen her image before me many times.
Some would say: eyes of such a hue,
glowing skin, glowing hair,
a certain motion in her walk,
a certain timbre in her talk,
a certain purpose in her...There.
And this is true.

But tactile impressions on the mind
reveal to me only the integrity
of her being and form.

I see more.

Thank you both very much.  
Severn -- something has changed, yes.
Eagle One -- save it, if you like.  I have more.
