The seeking of unity in fact by a single faculty insteaad of Unity of Being has separated man from his Genius -- Yates / I search for traces of they Spirit out in the Universe. . . Thou has created the five-fold orbits of the planets and in their midst the Sun, donor of light and life. . . .The movements of the heavens are therefore nothing other than un-ceasing poliphony.. . a music that moves by way of dissonance and tension, syncopation and cadenza toward pre-determined constellations -- Johannes Kepler / If we examine carefully the fables of the poets we will find prodigious secrets in them.

The rainbow's lintel of brief light, Arched across the door of night. . . .A duck's white feathers like a flower. . . on a pool left by a shower. . .the hot sound, steady and keen, of August moving by machine. . . The cool sound of a scythe, the small madness of a cricket's call. . . .the sudden smell of apples in October's twilight from a bin. . .the pleasure, lonely and immense, of the hearth cat's confidence. . . .The pines behind the barn somehow joined the lowing of a cow. . .To the moon that marched through crowds. . . of angels fair weather clouds. . . the pines possessed the ancient right of opening doorways in the night. . . to let the day and cockrow through, they built a fire in the dew. . . . Laid the hand of East in West's. . . Filled the eggs in robins' nests. . . .With thunder rolling deep below, the Earth at night. -- Ther? author
