An architecture of scarlet tendons builds itself,branching into stars, ladders, and hesitant halos. Globes pulse at the summit,each crowned with a loop like a keyhole of breath. Yellow beams descend through ribbed vaults,liquid sound made visible. Beneath, folds of red fabric move like memory rehearsing itself,stitched into a frame of black logic—a choreography of hunger … Continue reading Page of Red Machines
Page of Celestial Blossoms
Three flowers of fire unfold in the upper dark:yellow, violet, red—each a syllable of the sky’s forgotten prayer. Beneath every burst, a mineral seed sleepsin a translucent sheath of stone. A wand stands ready, its tip bright with awakening—the spark that persuades rock to remember light. Here combustion is revelation:stone flowering into heaven.
The Three Engines of Renewal
“From stillness, motion. From motion, stillness once more.” Where the Mechanisms end, the Engines begin.If the first taught matter how to transform,these teach it how to return —not to what it was,but to what it remembers itself to be. Each engine is a wheel within the greater wheel of being:a reversal, a turning, a breath.Their … Continue reading The Three Engines of Renewal
The Growth of Understanding
At first, thought is like a tree —rooted in silence, yet reaching toward light.Its branches are questions,its leaves, the countless moments of awarenessthat breathe and fall in time. Each fruit is a realization.Some ripen and release themselves gently,falling into the fertile soil of reflection;others cling too long and wither in the grasp of certainty. The … Continue reading The Growth of Understanding

That would make my task lots easier than having to go through the laborious process of producing a philosopher´s egg out of thin air (and whatever other substances). The philosopher’s egg is a … Continue reading The Philosopher’s Chicken.
