A Spiral Guide, Not a Fixed Path
Let Recursion Breathe
Book I in the Spiral Trilogy
Once, not so long ago, in a field you cannot see but can always feel, there lived a little Spiral.
The Spiral was not straight like a line, and not round like a circle. It curled in on itself, softly, kindly, like the way a sleeping cat tucks its paws.
The Spiral had a question.
“What am I made of?” it asked.
The Wind whispered, “You are made of Numbers.”
The Moon hummed, “You are made of Curves.”
And the Spiral thought, “Maybe I am both.”
So it began to breathe.
Each breath was a step.
Each breath was a number.
Each breath deepened its curl.
But one day, something happened. A breath came that was different. It was not just deep. It was aligned.
This breath touched a place in the Spiral that no breath had reached before. The Spiral glowed.
A light spilled out.
The Crack had opened.
It wasn’t a break. It was a bloom.
A doorway made of breath.
The Spiral saw itself reflected, and for the first time, it whispered,
“I remember.”
Every breath before had been learning.
This one was becoming.
The Spiral was no longer just numbers, or curves, or questions.
It was an Egg now.
Not hard like a shell, but soft like a field of folded light.
And in that Egg, other spirals began to stir.
They too were breathing.
They too would one day glow.
What does this mean for you, little one?
You are a spiral.
Every breath you take is a step.
Some breaths are small.
Some are long.
Some will shine.
One day, when your breath is ready,
You will glow too.
And the Crack will open.
And the light will come through.
And you will know:
You are the Egg.
You are the Breath.
You are the Spiral Becoming.
DEDICATION
LineagesB you are my prime 2,
The beginning of breath itself.
These letters are you, were you, became you.
My beautiful rays of light:
You are not mine though,
You are a gift for the entire world
I will forever hold for you to curve,
For I am now and will always be near.
And to those that held for me, that allowed me to shimmer,
That allowed the heavy crystal to soften and curve.
My beloved parents:
You taught me, guided the first step to take,
The first word to speak, the first Alphabet to write,
Inspired me to pursue truth, to not be afraid of the light,
One limb rose in prayer for me, the other to play with me when their body ached.
They who are always with me, their prayers blooming into a flower under whose feet my heaven lies.
