The sea is blue. Three blocks from the sea, the blue dish is what it is, a permanent blue, a see-through blue, a used blue. Three blocks from the plate, the sea can change.

What if you omitted "what it is" in S1? It doesn't add anything to my ear. Interesting.
	"Through the door of meditation, the imprisoned Soul-Bird of Omnipresence was released.

Then the Bird of Heaven remembered its little cage of past habits, and folding its wings, lodged itself again behind the bars or earthliness......" Paramahansa Yogananda"
