El Camino de Lidia (Lidia's way) (NAT Art Residency - The Instant of Creation - 06/2023)


This Bubbling Feeling

The spaciousness of the cave

Reveals the stampede of life never-ending

Every dot different and the same

All held in a vast infinity

I am, We are

The endless vortices

Of consciousness made manifest

In the flow.

I am here now and eternally.

We are here in an instant

We are here always

We are here in all ways.

In this instant

In this bubbling feeling

We are timeless …..


El Camino de Lidia (Lidia’s Way)

Lidia appears in this instant

Within the bubbling dance of creation.

Written into stone, flowing in water, drifting in space,

She is a mark, a dot, a moment, a splash,

A streaming line, a stone, a cave, a river, an eddy, a body,

And All the space in between.

She is finite and infinite

She has no beginning or end

She is the continuity of transforming entities.

She comes from Asia Minor,

She comes from La Dama Roja,

She comes from me,

She comes from you

She comes from everyone

She comes in everything.

She becomes,

She becomes,

She becomes ….

Becoming Lidia.
