Plate Note: This monochrome pen-and-ink illustration was composed through human-guided AI image generation and subsequent compositional editing. It forms part of an early exploration into new drawing tools, and into how such images might quietly sit alongside Zava Damdin Rinpoche’s Mongolian Buddhist dohas on the page. These visual choices are still being tested through placement, scale, spacing, and relation to the text. For this reason, the illustration is not offered as an interpretation of the poem itself.
