Synchronicity

Spiritualizing Science with ASMR

Saturn's rings and its largest moon, Titan. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Space Science Institute.

Since Saturn’s summer solstice

Supernova starquakes spread soothing scintillations

Spectacular space shows

Superluminal seconds spent

Spanning sinusoidal starry spirals

Seamlessly slaughtering solar systems

Steaming stratospheric satellites.

*

Smoke signals slither skyward

Sunlight spectrum shimmers

Swarming starlings share synergic speed

Salmons strenuously swim streams

Seeking source

Spiriting seminal substances.

*

Sudden sensual storms

Spring symptoms

Songbirds serenade sensational symphonies

Swan songs

Snakes shed skin, shapeshifting

Snails scale stone surfaces

Secreting sticky splotches

Seminating superficial signatures.

*

Seed starters, sprouting spores

Selenic seasonal subjects

Scrabbling soil

Strange symbiotic superorganisms

Self-sufficient

Sustaining salutary structures

Serving sophisticated sequestration

Solving Sapiens’ solipsistic simulation.

*

Shrimps, shellfish, sponges

Sifting sand

Scavenging serendipitous secrets

Scrambling seafloor sediments

Selecting symmetrical shells

Salty swirling spacetime semblance

Scouting shelter

Syncretic shrines

Safe sojourn.

*

Sanctuary signifies soul’s seat

So stay

Sit

Still

Sober

Salute sunsets

Smell seducing supper soup scents

Sip slowly

Soak soundscapes

Surrender self.

*

Settle supine

Sight sidereal symbols

Slumber sweetly

Silver starshine spills

Savour silence

Sense synchronicity.

*

*

Slowly, sunrise starts.

The article below dives deeper into some of the words and hidden meanings in my tautogram, the serendipitous journey I went through while composing it, as well as the connections with my other writings.

And in case you haven't noticed, there's a video at the top of this page in which my wife Racquel reads the poem aloud, bringing to life the ASMR aspect of the tautogram. Check it out!
