Mermaid Thoughts

I’m a mermaid alone crashing through the depths
of the open seas, sinking into the abyss to watch
the strange creatures there, then back to the ocean’s
surface, swimming with long strokes far beyond the
breakers on the reefs - as shape-shifter I get up to
walk on the beach and lie down under my favourite
fir tree where the North Wind, a great friend, sighs
his message through the needles and other trees

Leaves - I enter my cave to erect my own bulwarks
against the sun’s merciless heat with a big gift bag,
towel and beach umbrella - everything in blue-green
within the turquoise sheen of the blinds, I already
have fruit cake to celebrate Christmas within the
beautiful Miracle-Play symbolism constructed by
consciousness – currently I think consciousness
is a unit of many different electric cables conducting

Energy; after leaving the signal box of a physical body
turned into a corpse, the electric energy particles flow
into new cables which weave themselves into beings
as eternally continuing individuals which form part of
the virtual reality within an indestructible hologram
always creating new patterns and designs forever –
at this point in my musings I decide to look for my
Scorpio who would be strutting his stuff in his own

Virtual universe which affords all kinds of thoughts
and amusement when I visit him…
