The Bi-polar Nature of Light Revealed at Sea

In a swarm of liquid waves, I see it reflecting I am naked.

Like something innocent, it flows and ripples and ebbs.

I have no clothes, have no thoughts, and no home

I can see.

Here, where there are no others

I am alone.

The windswept leaves, the water, and the dust;

They all pass through me.

It seems I am empty, like I am not here when

This babbling sea says to me –

‘What deep darkness is this

Lurking in the rays on the crest of my waves?’

Lurking in the rays on the crest of my waves,

What deep darkness is this?

This babbling light says to me –

‘It seems I am empty? Like I am not here when

They all pass through me –

The windswept leaves, the water and the dust.

I am alone.

Here, where there are no others,

I can see

I have no clothes, have no thoughts, and no home...

Like something innocent? It flows and ripples and ebbs ­

In a swarm of liquid waves. I see it reflecting I am naked.’
