Three celestial moons plus one in reflection
brighten this nocturnal sea scene. The three moons combine
their light upon an inlet lagoon where a mysterious face emerges.
The eye on the right winks at us; her nose and mouth hide
behind the central driftwood. Her eye on the left is poised
within a bird’s beak and under a gull’s outspread
wings, and above the beak of another bird. These three shimmering
“spirits” are the final manifestation of the “three”
spirits in Arboreal Spirits IX and X.
