Submerged Cathedral, After Debusy
Submerged Cathedral, After Debusy: Blue-green light reflects off the polished wood of the knave in the sunken cathedral. It would hold songs and poems suspended in blue-grey, turquoise light. The day would be blue every day, the night black as a velvet opera cloak. In the submerged cathedral we would never see snow or rain anymore. Never see clear stars, they would always appear as constellations in fragmentation. The bottoms of boats would be our birds of the air seaweed our plants and coral our trees. We would never cry, tears cannot be seen underwater, how would they show? We find an air lock of negative space under a bell in the sunken cathedral under the sea. Inside the tenor bell tangy with iron, there may be a breath or two. How did we end up at the bottom of the sea, inside a bell, breathing the very last air that there is?
