The Flower Grows by the Door

So extremely simplified
So far, will it get simpler
Or will more aspects emerge?

Part of what’s missing must be
Memory and sense of self,
But only a certain class

Of memory, anything
Episodic, and only
The self-referential self.

The memory languages,
Words as names, encapsulate,
That’s here. Well-tempered clavier.

See? That was vivid enough.
And perspective. Transparent
Eyeball, if not aware self.

All those afterlives of clouds
And glowing pearly backdrops
Weren’t so far off after all.

Are the blossoming lines signs
Intended to encode words?
The flower grows by the door.
