Cosmic Reflection

moon on still pond surface

surface of moon in water

reflected in mind’s mirror

all an image, a vision, 

a mirage,

like my feelings 

kaleidoscoping

matter over mind

matter of mind

matter is energy

slowed down

alley-oop

the great switcheroo

looking at itself…

“This arm, that table, both

are part of me….whatever 

me is, or, 

I’m just part of that.”

We are made of matter

containing energy organized

into self awareness,

awareness of other,

confused into belief in a self

separate from other,

two pieces of the same mirror.
