sheer here/the unplumbable moment/infinitely obscure/

the more you look/the more is there-

you'll never bottom out.

sphinx poised

and the riddle

vibrating

in the air

warping the light

?

the irresistible vortex

and at its centre

sustaining

its constant coilings

the mute paradox.

?

the nadir

is threshold

to its uppermost

extent.
