Numb

How
To be opposed,
When I find myself
Bereft of the faculty to respond.
Stunned, winded, gutted,
A filleted fish,
All bones and structure ripped from me.
Now I cannot even stand up, speak up, or
Hold
That which is dearest.
I longed to protect you,
Like a vigilante child:
Looking out over the precipice of my hardened eyelids and feeling the roaring tiger within-
Ready to pounce.
One threat to my beloved,
One suggestion of a threat,
Of anything remotely harmful,
And I would go for the jugular:
Stun, wind, and gut you
If you dared.
Yet, I didn't know who you were,
Where you were.
Hoodwinked.
However,
I have not gone anywhere from this sleep.
Awakening,
I see your jugular now.
Wink
Wink.

Something Stunning

This could be said:

We go around acting as if everything's ok.

Then we find the courage to look deeply, and we find that perhaps everything's not ok.

And we keep going.. and sometimes a treasure is revealed.. perhaps everything really is ok. More than ok. Just as it is.

So Sincere

So Sincere

You know: there's sincerity in all we do~

Including the pure sincerity of insincerity..

To protect an image

As the world sincerely appears.
Before us:
The blade of grass sincerely grows;
The body sincerely knows;
The ocean sincerely folds.
Into itself,
Moving, rolling,
Very still.

...

The earnest pleading:
'bring me home.. bring me home.'

So sincerely.

And then I get out of bed, grab the broom, and start sweeping.

Shattered

We all laugh sometimes, or not enough..
And then a ticklish ache builds inside us so powerfully,
We cannot help but burst into painful peals of laughter.. an explosion of rolling, endless laughter;

We all cry sometimes, or not enough..
And then a moment grips us so powerfully,
That undulating waves of sadness ripple through us in a cleansing torrent.. pouring out.. unravelling..endless ocean;

We all love sometimes, or not enough..
And then a moment of union creates a space so vast, there is only love.. blown open.. infinite, warm loving light;

We all try to hold on, or try to let go..
And then a crack suddenly appears, and we free-fall into the infinite totality of who we are:

Breathless.. gasping..

Then we're back.. within our ever-changing body, stories, time and space:
We open the the fridge, pull out a couple of eggs, and prepare breakfast.

A quote by Martha Graham (American dancer, choreographer)

"There is a vitality, a life-force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open..."

Mother Ocean

Mother Ocean
When I float in you, I feel we are one.
You fill me with life, love and empowerment.
Now I give it to you; share it with you,
From a human experience.
Endless silky nurturing-
You are me, I am you... I take a luxurious swim in myself.

Mother Air, I breathe you in,
I breathe you out,
So you may feel yourself through
This human existence.
We are of the same material:
Cells, fragrances, flow, life.
Sharing you, made of you, being you.
I breathe myself in; I breathe myself out.
I pass through myself in
Infinite ways.

Mother Earth,
I live in you, my body is you,
I am of you.
I hear you; taste you, love you-
We consume eachother
Over and over.
Insatiable satiety.
