Russell Webb, Purple ohm

Bob 1978 (England)



It feels like ive already seen this....
In kaleidoscope,marble light and form,
Infinately protean, never ending.

It was not a dream.

Somewhere farther than imagination yet so tangeble.
To experience is only to let go and feel.
Resistance only brings confusion.

Words pale to insignificance.
There is no explaination.

A vision of the universe recalled and revealed in an unobtainable instant.

A glance in the mirror.

A reconnection to a place i have never been.
