"To Walk the Labyrinth is Amazing."
"Everything looped, spiral, circular,
thought, but the labyrinth is not a maze but a singular way
to strike the profoundest chord, across aspire.
Those who enter the labyrinth can leave.
Pilgrims sometimes don't.
Elle did not.
Inside the largest circle, the labyrinth
itself splits into equal parts, demi-arcs or waves.
No, silly, Elle whispers, petals.
If measured through the center of the pedals,
there should be two parts for each petal in one
for the entry.
But calculations from the measurements
show that this is not so.
The difference is about half an inch.
There is no way around this problem.
We must seek a solution to the geometry
of petals, the consequential mystery of Elle's message.
I was sick and am not healed.
I am not blind but dead.
I am not dead but silenced.
Alone, in love."
