Conception and perception

Conception
is Mind alone
understanding
its Mind-created idea—
not matter thrown
and mixed
in a biologic jar.
It is Spirit's substance
reflected so easily
here, not off and far.

Perception
is Life alone
revealing
what always has been—
not change of gene
or cell
in a material space.
It shows the universe
of unfolded perfection
now and always seen.
