Today’s
theme was silence, reflected in the exercise, which asked us to sit in silence
and stare at an immovable object for five minutes. Then write all the things
that the silence and the staring stirred. I observed a mask made of stone,
feathers, bone, and wood.
Discovery
Openings
through which we see to the other side
like leaked scenes in a Chinese garden
Our focus narrowed
zeroed in on one thing
Reflection
in the eyes of someone else
someone you love or
someone you hate or
someone whom you know not
Recognition
Peering at and through another’s
eyes
to her self
To discover the thing
That makes you sisters
lovely! " Openings
