To be sublime is to be aware. To be aware anywhere. Anywhere one can be sublime. Or one's Third Eye can be Blind(ha). Blind is what is not sublime, blind is an unseeing third eye. One blind eye is better than three. But three is where I wish to be. Beside you, with all my eyes, that would be sublime. On the docks fully aware of the way your hair is not blind, but sublime. Anywhere, anywhere, anyone, anyhow, anytime, any place, any plane, one can be sublime. One in line of one long line of lyrical logic. Like leprechauns leaping like lemurs lapping liquid LSD. One can be sublime.
I really enjoyed reading this piece. You very clearly outline your train of thought, the lack of jumping around into ideas that the reader cannot see happening is very much appreciated. Sublime means impressing the mind with a sense of grandeur or power; inspiring awe, veneration and I like how you referred to sublime as an awareness that can happen anywhere. My favorite line is “anywhere, anywhere, anyone, anyhow, anytime, any place, any plane, one can be sublime”. The part where you mention “any plane” is fascinating. I feel that you could expand more on that idea to maybe lengthen the thought even more. The “like leprechauns leaping like lemurs lapping liquid LSD” fits well with LSD because that’s kind of a trippy statement. I enjoyed how sublime started out as an action that a person can do ended with sublime meaning something a person can be. I find the kind of metaphysical aspect of the third eye being mentioned and how it can be blind, and which for a lot of people is the case. Maybe you could expand on the idea of three being where you wish you could be. This is a really interesting and fascinating piece.
