(A Sacred Song of Still Vision - The Owl)
Before darkness had edges,
the Owl had already seen them.
It did not chase.
It did not glow.
It watched—
until what was hidden
spoke first.
Among the people, it is said:
When the Owl turns its head toward you,
do not speak.
Let your silence answer first.
The Owl teaches:
That not all seeing needs light.
That not all knowledge needs words.
And that some truths
only arrive
when you stop asking.
