“It’s human as a human eyeball,”
she says, “to fumble our deep knowledge
that the empty ‘sky’ is teeming full
beyond our view, and the oceans—huge
and crowded—go all the way down.
From the earliest age, we’ve drawn trees
as trunk, branches and leaves—never mind
the alleged subterranean
activities, the minute details
we gloss over—it’s natural. But
we don’t remind ourselves we forget.
One practice,” she says, “is to wake up
with the intention of extending
ourselves into what we half-perceive,
to let our actions cross our blind edge
into those other realms. How will we
then
modify what we do daily?”
