Reflecting
Picture by Nara Malone in Scene 6 of Immersive Edge: Confusion |
In this place of moon petals and impotence
We suspend revolving sorrow
Let wind walk up the curtains
Drawn tight against truth
Outside we play hide-and-seek
In the wilderness of windows
Ordering reflections
Birthing inner mannequins
Fleeing heaven
~Nara

Immersive Edge grew out of a poem I wrote a long time ago. The pictures above are from scenes designed and built by +Cherry Manga and +Praline B this summer. They had never seen this Reflections poem and their build didn’t exist when I wrote it a year or two ago. The words and images make me wonder if our futures sometimes reveal themselves in poetry, a precognitive dream on paper.

I believe poetry is emotions put into words, things escape us which we only understand much later, like maybe here?
