For a tattoo, I would seek an artist who could depict a “Magic Eye” image upon my bod. You know, one of those ultrascopic, 3-D, 10-yard stare images that were all the rage at the mall a few Christmases ago?
Yes, that’s what I’d want.
On the surface it would be a discombobulated repeat of an idyllic warm ocean wave curling back into itself in an innocent effort of renewal, reenergizing and rebirth. To the eye focused and trained, it would be the illumination of my very soul. In dimensions yet unbound. On the plane of witness, it would seem worthy of distraction to some, worthy of focus to select few, and invisible to me.
Ultimately, through depths of vision, this is what it would come to. Inconceivably, it is a desert image. Born of sand sans beloved ocean. It would be my desire to spring to life in my heart the star of New Mexico. Four compass points, cross, circle and wicked contrast. Native symbol to this continent. And simple if you look hard enough.
Cool ; )
ReplyDeleteTrust you to turn the ordinary weekend assignment into something poetic! This is also weird because only yesterday, I was thinking about the spiritual significance of the NM flag symbol and writing something about it. Coincidence, eh? ¤Holly
