Even when you grasp the science,
Magic persists.
Light and shadow bending through a natural spectrum as
Crepuscular rays illuminate a snag.
A deer’s skull–
Past meets present.
Brocken spectrum casts silhouettes against a fogbank–
The legerdemain of branches like fingers.
Ridgeline trees materialize.
What lies before you?
Egyptian Goddess Ma’at in prismatic light–
Winged to balance feather
Against soul.
Take her into yourself.
Medusa snags reach out to
Sustain you in
Wholeness.
Embrace the enchantment of
Circadian glamours.
