Perceive

For sensing it all

Everything is talking to you.

It speaks in symbols and signs  — 

the synchronous realization,

the lyric overheard on the radio,

the subject of the email marked as spam.

The more you start to notice,

the more you understand.

You are an octopus.

The world comes in

through your feelers.
