Projecting My Experiences onto the Outer World

Every part of my experience etched into my being
Light surface markings from the color and texture of everyday life
Deep penetrating fissures blasted from the rarest meteors from heavens
Water continuously ebbing, flowing, twisting, and turning
Coming and going, rushing and slowing, flooding and fading
Creating a webbed network leading to an inner Ocean Core
Time continuously sheering away until majestic canyons made apparent
Until deepest veins revealed, leading to the motherlode: the gold within
All shaping a sculpture always projected onto the outer world
My vision, my being, my knowing, and my understanding...
Light and shadow combined to paint pictures, to play musical scores
Forming a composition only revealed through time
A composition in need of constant deciphering
Questions of belonging and identity:
What narratives belong to me?
What narratives belong to others?
What parts are uniquely mine?
What parts are uniquely theirs?
What parts belong to our shared human heritage?
What belongs to our shared human experience?
And finally, What belongs to the all, the universal?
