What the Eye Wants To See, by Charles Carreon
What the eye wants to see
is curves.
Lines that come around to
meet each other.
What the mind wants to feel
is closure.
The sense that things conclude,
come round,
reach fulfillment.
What the ear wants to hear
is rhythm,
a pattern in time
to pace its passing and
provide assurance of return.
With each beat we return,
coming back to ourselves,
back to here, this space.
What the eye wants to see
is curves.
Lines that come around to
meet each other.
What the mind wants to feel
is closure.
The sense that things conclude,
come round,
reach fulfillment.
What the ear wants to hear
is rhythm,
a pattern in time
to pace its passing and
provide assurance of return.
With each beat we return,
coming back to ourselves,
back to here, this space.
