inside, out
through above, below,
between and beyond, in dialogue—
stillness, motion, light, shadow, presence, absence,
never
settles, always
shifting,
shaping,
revealing,
concealing,
becoming—moving ,
no sevis, uz āru,
no augšas uz leju,
cauri un pāri visam, esot dialogā—
miers, kustība, gaisma, ēna,
klātbūtne, neesamība,
nekad
neapstājas, vienmēr
mainās,
veidojas,
atklājas,
slēpjas,
top-kļūst,
