Wow what a beautiful post in both splendid imagery and vocabulary. Traits of an enlightened soul.
I love your format too.
Short poetic burst of wisdom, with insertion of colour and imagery of post subject.
You look other worldly.
I also got the feeling of snake.
Not in a negative sense (although maybe, since: duality) but in the comparison of that vibrant skin colour diversity that some snakes exhibit.
