~What Does The Sky Really Look Like?~

The Sky

Gazing into the sky

Is like reflecting

Upon subconscious thoughts;

The imagination paints

Fluffy, white, Archetypical images

Onto that vast, blue canvas above us

& personifies them.

The Earth falls out from beneath our feat

As we momentarily lose ourselves

In the Ethereal, rolling images

That are infinitely morphing

Into abstract replicas

Of child like drawings

That our minds fingerpaint

In the sky.

We perceive beauty & perfection

In these external images

That externally do not exist,

But are rather pure subjective experiences.

We look into the sky

& we see a reflection

Of our own minds,

& the sky

Is lost.

NOTE: I wrote this on 09/16/2012. If I remember correctly I believe Robert M Pirsig’s Zen & The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance inspired this. . . The subject matter is relevant. That combined with the fact that this book came to mind while reading this & a faint hint of familiarity indicates that this is true .
