Sometimes I experience reality
as looking through imaginary fishbowls
in front of my eyes
Kind of like floaters
on the lens of my eyes
but larger and still imaginary
It is not so much their color or shape
that is anchoring me in a new way
but just their presence
as it reflects for me what is real
Sure I know they are not real in the world
but they provide for me
a perspective about what is real
How the depth of what is real
is shared or not
These are floating Post-Its
to remind me of the difference
between what is real
and where does real come from
They live in a world
where real comes from
but are not of the real
in the world
Reality flat screens me too easily
and the fish remind me
of the fluid they are in
which further reminds me
of the depth of field
where reality comes from
as opposed to what reality represents
When I put it all together
it is all magically unfolding
And the source of the magic is serene
and peaceful
but not static or still
Sure there is stillness
if I am there to surmise it
but to be of it and live it alive
is not still
but fluid without evidence
Active without content
can be assumed to be imaginary
but somehow experienced as real
So the fish swim by
and I see you there
and you are sort of over there
but also here
as the fish swim around and by you
It then appears that we are here
yet you are still appearing to be over there
which tells me of a bigger intimate sea
even though there is a always “over there”
in a real sense
I have nothing more to say about it
since you’re here
or we’re here
while we are here and there to me
Now you are part of my fluid Post-Its world
and you remind me of a greater us,
an emotional oneness of us
and nothing is subjectively personal about it
It just is
and there is nothing to do
to advance or confirm what already is
since this is not a contention
it just is
The planet has oceans
and I or at least my ‘we’ has fishbowls!
At least one of us
being either you and me
or otherwise the ocean
is empathetically so
For we are something more
than a unified confinement in receivership
We are also this ocean of sorts
yet to be fully discovered
We are more than a formula of audience
as participation
We are a oneness
but persist to swim
by a subject/object set of reality fins
We identify as fish
and confine ourselves to separate bowls
We are all the same fluid
but go for the glass
as the basis of our identity
I am supposed to proceed in reality
by my un-nameable bowl identity
even though my bowl is submerged
in a collective ocean
filled with separated bowls
There is only one next solution in mind!
Pull level, break glass, and flow . . .
