Claude Monet, Nympheas
* * * *
“When botanists go walking the forests and fields looking for plants, we say we are going on a foray. When writers do the same, we should call it a metaphoray, and the land is rich in both. We need them both; scientist and poet Jeffrey Burton Russell writes that “as the sign of a deeper truth, metaphor was close to sacrament. Because the vastness and richness cannot be expressed by the overt sense of a statement alone.”
― Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass

You are the dancers in sunlight, the waltz of one million sparks. You are the sound of the choir singing the days ahead, rising on peculiar lust.
