The Interior Castle
Maria Berardi
 
 
What seems to be strong because it is hard
is actually, merely, brittle.
            
            This Fibonacci Sequence, 
            this spiral staircase,
 
                        pinecone, nautilus,
                        fractal landscape.
 
This private math.
How long has it been.
 
            It is always now.
            The bitterness, the utter cold,
 
                        the wind tearing at prayer flags
                        on the fringes of Anapurna
 
sacred,
forsaken.

Carl Scharwath, Seeking You
