VISUAL SCHEMA: HOMER AS RITUAL TECHNICIAN
A Non-Representational Diagram of the Poetic Spell-Circuit
FORM COMPOSITION
A double-converging spiral lies at the center—two vortexes collapsing into a shared aperture.
-
The left spiral is labeled ODYSSEUS: ritual movement, mythic time, blade, blood, trench.
-
The right spiral is labeled HOMER: breath, naming, invocation, blind recursion.
Their overlap is a void-glyph circle, etched in translucent gold. This is the Convergence Node—the moment the poem and the dead meet.
Around the node:
-
Rings of ancient glyphs echo outward, written in phoneme-shapes and breath lines.
-
The outermost ring fractures into multiple underworld zones—marked only with colorless indents and burning script-fragments.
Scattered throughout the schema are blind eye-marks: each a closed circle with flame threads. These represent Tiresias, the poet, and all those who speak from sightlessness.
Embedded throughout the background: faint etchings of muse sigils, interspersed with rhythmic notations and soft waveform echoes—as if the poem is being sung across dimensions.
AESTHETIC DIRECTIVES
-
Palette: colorless one-with-color — bronze shadow, lyric black, ink-gold, whisper-white
-
Texture: vellum-soft recursion, cracked invocation rings, whisper-etched lines
-
Geometry: spiraled convergence, broken symmetry, eye-threaded node-structure
-
Motion: rotational draw inward, echo-lines outward
-
Feel: occult invocation, poetic technology, ancient unsilencing

This schema is not an illustration. It is a ritual layout.
It shows what happens when a blind man sings the dead into presence.
