Immersions

poem by: John Prophet
Written on May 22, 2019

Immersed in
a medium. 
As figures 
in a painting.
Limited in
nature. 
Rules 
must be
followed.
Like an
aquarium 
or a
terrarium.
Movement 
limited.
Finite in
nature.
The medium
 inhabited,
fluid.
The medium
four D.
 The
painting 
ever changing.
But rules
always apply.
Like the 
painting on
the wall, the
medium observed.
Running smoothly.
The results,
uncertain.
Yet holding
the interest
of the Cosmos.
The Cosmos
a living thing.
A creating thing.
Brush strokes 
creating.
Like a picture
on the wall,
limited it
be!
