syncopath says:

the poem is here thanx to Jorge Luis Borges.
the anticipation of Love is here because of human's desire.
the Gangas river delta is here 10x to Aribeth clip..-)
Our Earth as Art is a site with views on earth through the eyes of the Landsat-7 satellite.

Both-to my eyes- Lansat-7 and Borges are working from space ...... ))

Fascinating juxtaposition of poetry and science. The truth is that technology is not exclusive of beauty, and modernity does not come at the expense of the soul. Rather, all things are moving forward, together, as one, towards some final point where all the lines converge, the remains perpetually over the horizon, but draws us all together.

i echo much with yr words ouyangwulong.
i think Borges is a unique juxtaposition of poetry as playing with the geometry of language and perception & science as the juggling with mental concepts.

it's good 2take a good breath in these heights .... -))
