The Double Bindweed
An artist’s soul
In scientist’s wrapping
Yearning to find its way
Into vibrant expression
.
Rebellious from the outset
Yet caught up in trapping
By hard lines of thought
Through which it’s been taut
To keep its self to itself
.
Aware, from the start
That the way of the heart
Can’t been found through hard wiring
.
Yet, knowing full well
Without some kind of shell
No one
Can hold its self together
.
And so combining
The view from within
With the view from without -
The artistic science
The scientific art
To find a way into and out
From the open
.
Which brings validity to both
In mutual inclusion
For all senses to sense
When hearts and minds are disclosed
To life
As only life can be
