Soliel
We are sitting here speaking softer than the others Our voices are faint but they're growing louder and louder As I stand to speak to you under this crystal moon The trees play background humming our sacred tune Continue reading

The impatience of it all
I want it now
dreaming of it
imagining it
each day, a little anxiety, what will it be like
each moment, coming back to the body

When he said my name…
When he said my name
something in me knew I was on the rite track
when he looked me in the eyes

I'm crossing this open ocean Boats all full and sails are arise In this place of observation Where the sun sets in our eyes And there's no turning back No time to cry For the loneliness will find it's peace As the elements will calm your mind This blue river is leading me To the wide ocean of possibility Continue reading
The body politic
Can I watch it unfold
Hold it
Love it
Play it
But not fall prey to it

The other implicit and experienced as in the tenderness of the culture, the humility as one being caresses another
Thank you for the reminder that the atmosphere love intends is not only as explosive as the volcano but creates the foundation for which transformations depend.
