Ex nihilos from some days ago. The photos are taken with the microscope camera through one of the two outlets of a binocular microscope. The cord is wound/wind up around the lens when stored away. The light comes from below the microscope lens, reflected from the microscope object. There were four pieces - philosophically interesting:
Piece #1
Piece #2
Piece #2 detail
Piece #3
Piece #3 detail
Piece #4
Piece #4
Piece #4
Piece #4
From my 'SNEEFT COEIL' chapter 7 the '20 Gedichte' poem 1:
Das Essen ist das schnelle Licht.
Das Trinken ist der Wein
and for 'stille Gehör' there are the associations to the normal human ear.
See also the Euler-Mascheroni constant which (by the logic of the 'mystic numbers') lands on this 'Trinken', approximately mid way through the word - which even could mean 'trinn-chain' = 'step-chain'.

I should add for the general interest that Piece #1 could be associated with a certain peculiar behaviour: As it lay on the microscope glass it seemed to lift up on the bend - for the two 'brushy' parts pointing upwards - and by a closer inspection there seemed to be a very fine fiber going out from the lifted top of it down to the glass underneath - which suggests that perhaps it would not have been about very normal levitation, sort of. Fiber & fiber it could be, if not simply one single fiber, but then the single fiber could have been a little off the balance point, so I dont know. Around the lifted top (the two 'brushy' ends) there seemed to be a small fan of very fine fibres spreading out.
I dont know if this would have been part of the mythology in the Beirut bombing: If one studies the streetmap under the harbour region where the bomb sprang, it occurs that it resembles somewhat piece #2 (tilted 45 degrees) - and then the male's head would have been close to or in the place where the bomb sprang - in which case the 'fierce dog' as a detail of piece #2 would be in the 'Basta/Bachoura' district. (There is a 'Bastaloira in Moansland' in my TEQ poem #514 - see also the number on Piece #3).
Bay-Ruth could be in reference to the woman on the ground in Hütteldorfer Strasse at the corner to Wiener Stadthalle: In the short Book of Ruth in the old testament of the Bible, there are three elements which seem to attract attention as having a peculiar poetic weight: 1) The shady light under the ceiling where Ruth is drinking water (this seems not explicitly mentioned but one sees or senses it nevertheless), 2) the water she is drinking, and 3) the threshing-floor. Clearly if Ruth is the factual reference in this phenomenon, the shady light under the ceiling would correspond to the traffic lights while the idea of a waterhorn (drinking horn, Trinkhorn) would be the corner of Wiener Stadthalle.

(Here is another streetmap - of 'Bastia' - hence of potential relevance for the 'Basta' of Beirut).
