another mindful serendipity...

the light rises and falls

the pen, too, in the starlit breeze

my body merges with this flow

what has taken me so long?

03182016

within the infinity of 
this enchanted world

...

everything i encounter
i experience as an emergence

a heavy fog that descends over
unsuspecting fences

a random artifact that needn't be 
negotiated or understood

...

i hold what comes inside the clear 
water of the spirit

i nurture the blueness of that timid but
intense flame

...

yes, this is how things fall
unexpectedly, after all

03092016

life pulses.

i walk

without force.

life burns.

i touch

without grasping.

life overflows.

i make space

for grace.

something "other" dwells within
those flickers of light we call thoughts
those radiant moments we so often reify

imagination...

a fantasy
a fable
a dream

perception...

a fragment
an image
a landscape

incubation...

a search
a quest
a journey

emergence...

a stairway
a window
a door

02272016

the cool winter nights 

sweeten into balmy spring

but there is one piece missing

from this image

an absence that lingers upon my skin

like a flawless fingerprint

this thirst

this famine

holds fast to my flesh

a cloven spirit

a past that guards its secrets

with chastity belts

a wanting

a reckoning

who will help me hold this emptiness?

i said,
where have you been?

she said,
entrenched within
the liminal spaces...
seeking... sorting... sitting.

i said,
and, what have you reaped?

she said,
a flow that words would but imprison.
