Analysis of Living seeds
Ronald Tirino 1962 (NYC)
Living seeds beyond beginning of its end
Form transcend dispersed in the subjects of its object
It becomes a microcosm of itself
Mosaics inarticulate
as the living eye
designs of color and form
leaves delicately traced
shapes imprinted as shadows
left on moistened stone
alive to ones beginning
through the contrary
oppositions of its equilibrium
burnt amber skies
behind a silver moon
day becomes night
reborn in a fading sun
of a new tommorows
