Poem: Cupped

Cupped

Two bodies of water converge, merge
coalesce - incorporation.

Lines of symmetry formed,
synchronicity mastered.

Laws owed only to
controlled experimentation - devoid
of succulent flow, surprise,
tied to the many life-draining
ramifications of technique.

The nodes of mystery cannot be uncovered,
only the outline revealed, after that,
the root mantra gets conveyed.

Like futile attempts at flossing between
two great mountains bonded
by unrest and solid slates -
century-slow-permanent addition.

How to Setup Solar

Step 1. Create a Homepage

Even if you already have a home page, you'll need to create a new one since Solar needs a blank page to automatically pull and display your blog posts in the magazine layout. You can create a new homepage by going to "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Standard" page.

Step 2. Apply "solar" Page Layout

Once you create a new homepage, apply the "solar" page layout to the new homepage. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, select the homepage on the left, and under "HEADER TYPE", select "solar".

Step 3. Create A Blog

If your site doesn't have a Weebly "Blog" page, then create a new "Blog" page. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Blog Page".

Step 4. Setup Blog Automation

Come back to this screen and fill in the input boxes with the URL of your "Blog" page and 3 category URLs from that blog.
