enter now the Gatespace
unfolding and enfolding, eightways
the squared circle squared (with gates)
reflections of wholenesses many and one

can we say it is a flower?
a wild one or say it is a weed
and we will take it for our own

now circle the new new tender(s)
curl-footed bright
mysteries love company
and so it begins

she draws
again a synthetic rose
centered on the vesica, on the
first proposition

this is not a coincidence

there are two spirals and they are one
“Perfect is what I have said of the work of the sun.”
