Ineffable Harmony - A meditation on John the Scott

Ineffable Harmony

A Neoplatonic tree
Rooted in ineffable harmony
From the branches
Soaring above the earth
To the gritty tendrils
Stretching into time gone by.
Scripture.

Darkness and light
Sing a chorus of color
In natural splendor
Ruled by the cycles
Of death birthed into life.

Creation as a mirror of the Creator.
Love absorbed through every fiber. 
Full knowledge never disclosed.
Unknowable
Yet observed
In
Biological cells
Rock formations
Simple flowers.

Beyond time
Yet noticeable
In
Every moment.
Giver of language
Yet outside the realm of words.

Where symbolism meets reason
And
Linear intersects multidimensionality
Lies the beginning…

A unity that requires
No differentiation,
No separation,
No lines,
No objects,
Not even Being itself…
Simply incomprensible wholeness

comprehended in every piece of creation.
