Introspection Under the Sea of We

We
Swim
like clown fish like blue stingers
ready to laugh and let out a cry
What do I
What do you
See?
Feel?

Swim
inside to the bottom
like a feather underwater
impossible
I
stuck on the surface
plucked by the sky

Bottom feeding
introspection
Alone
To
Die.

You and I
Alone
To
Die.

    Lina, this is sad. And it hits home especially for me cause I could never swim like a clown fish or a bllue stinger or even a practice fish and as you know I can`t even float on my back, so I would totally be stuck feeding on the bottom and die cause there`s nothing to eat down there that I`d like and there`s SO gonna be no dessert…

    BUT… I`m faving this cause I really dig the colors, and there`s an amazing feeling of eternity in this even if you`ve got the two of them dying alone. But then, death doesn`t really happen does it…

  • linaji replied

    I think you know I like this comment very much.. I also think the last line of your comment really is what takes all the sadness away from the entire piece.
    thank you so very much for the fav too BB!!

    Linaji, very strong feelings come out; like the colours; contrasting, sky, sea; light illuminating, darkness; alone, together, but we are all one. Peace and love to you.

  • linaji replied

    Dearest Ruth.. I gave this to a friend who I wanted to know where I was coming from literally with the piece. ne can with poetry really grasp whatever they want to take home with them selves.. but I wanted you to feel what I was feeling at the time of the creation of teh art first and then I created the verse..
    it is about perceptions and the death of expectations… It is about perception being a very alone ordeal and about when one’s perceptions about people, places, or things .. begin to dissapate and all that bottom feeding on one another is the death of the lightness of Being.
    Thank you so much Ruth.. as you know your presence means the world to me. xo

  • linaji replied

    that would be.. ‘One can with poetry’....

    Thank you Lina….......love this…....’perception is a very alone ordeal’ and ‘bottom feeding on one another is the dath of the lightness of Being’. Wonderful way of putting thoughts and feelings into words!!! And yes, there truly is no death. :o) Just a change in perception, focus…............ XOXO

    Perfect diving….
    swimming is not diving..
    though in water….
    feather hard as a bone marrow…..
    feather sunken….underworld.
    Not to die…
    no.
    Rosa (a couple of dreams…. dreaming a couple…underwater feelings….felt under me. Hug…)
