Correspondence between ocean
and our psychic depths,
Both visible and invisible
forms of reality.
Subterranean, celestial
fluidities coalesce,
Abyssal regions largely
impenetrable,
Like the archaic energies of
the psyche.
Living fossils largely
unchanged over millions of years,
Lurking in the icy darkness of
the bottom waters.
Whole ecosystems untouched by
sunlight flourish in the sea,
Just as networks of
accumulated experience flourish in the psyche,
Enhancing the waters
regardless of our knowledge of their existence.
In each of us, salty, amniotic
fluids run in our mnemonic veins,
Tidal currents course through
our deeps and shallows,
Yielding to the rhythmic pull
of moon and sun.
The undulations of our myriad
intensities combine in
Ever-changing patterns
reflected on our surfaces.
Just as the pattern of wave
trains – intermingling, overtaking, passing,
Or sometimes engulfing one
another – are endlessly reconfigured over the face of the sea.
