A Brief Reflection On The Words Of M. C. Escher

This surface was intended for walking
Tessellated tiles
A wonder turning on itself wonders
Not by stepping down
But in shifting up each movement to a
Permeated gaze
--
After visiting a

surface that was intended for walking
tessellated tiles surface that were intended for
walking tessellated surfaces
intent for wondering by turning on itself
not by stepping down I wonder
if turning on is wondering
not by stepping down itself but shifting
as it wonders on its turn
to stepping on its permeated gaze
but in shifting up each movement
to a permeated wonder that steps onto a
surface that was intended for walking
