peripheral vision



i see wildness poised in the corner, waiting to strike. untamed and complex. a myriad of intricate design, interwoven subtleties and meaning and intent. its in the corner of my eye and when i look directly at that which i want to understand, i see it no more. i only see it when i look away and choose something else to be my focus, then i notice it again. subtle movements are further hidden in blurry overtones. and i’m left with the knowing that i will only ever know in part that which i think i need to know in full and i will only ever know this part by looking away from it.
