I rest when and where I want. Yes! That rest extends to my waking life. Yes! Even in the midst of my storms I breathe and rest.
How is my attention to self not divine? I’m unraveling the bandages of wounds left on my spirit. I am in contact with the most sacred-- a dialogue with being.
No! She is not dead nor is she in submission. She is napping, crying, dancing, living and making life, breathing onto her creation that which only she can produce. She is me and I am them. Wherever we choose to be, sanctity is. Because captured in the folds of my body, meninges of the physical form, is a Sacred Spirit that generates and animates.
With a thought, a spark across the space of my mind, my form becomes infinite, consuming and absorbing the world around her like a hurricane. Listen to my stillness and dance to the rhythm of my shape and you’ll graze the surface of futurity.
P.S.: No! I cannot magically take you there. Ask your mama!
