Unicorn 9

For most of those who are graced to see it, the vision’s enough – they bring humility, are still, drink in this creature, which for a space of time is in this world, and yet not of this world, who shows them who they are, and always were – so what is known, is known; they leave its presence as themselves. but some find it’s quite natural to speak, as one might bear a sacrifice in outstretched arms of all that is and is not of themselves. That glorious creature does not speak; but listens: listens with, as if, the one point of its horn which brings its ears to its eyes; gazes as it listens; a gentle, mild, sweet gaze; listens, gazes, with its whole wise, understanding presence; and having spoken, or not spoken, all leave as themselves; knowing themselves to have the whole universe as their measure.
