Every conversation

every interaction

is self-discovery

If you're honest enough

I take off my robe

Straighten out, stretch

I give up the morning

reluctantly, painfully,

asking it

to leave me something

to be in

It's the bird song.

The sea is it

the ocean - a he

Today I pretend they're she

like the water they're made of

And I see how they're all

intimately connected

Half of what I've wanted to become

I already am.

my Mary mornings

unmarred by thought

hard to let go of

 

20.V.2021 

 

 

I will see you off

into the darkest

into the deepest

reality that doesn't exist here

A place that's not a place at all

I will take your fire arrows

that you'll send from there

and carefully lay them into

an iron chest

Their lace smoke will

smudge this space

When you're ready

the moon will greet you

the sun will warm you

Your body reborn

your soul awakened

We'll welcome you.
