Let it open and close, and

Allow the blood to flow.

 

Let me choose Love

While this physiology does

What it does.

 

For I have no control about the breath.

Ultimately, it breathes for me;

 

Ultimately, I am grateful

For nature’s nurturing, and for

 

For Rivers that don’t need anyone’s

Pushing.

 

For mountains that do not require

Mankind’s hands to pile up the earth, nor

Organize themselves unto this mission.

 

For Sun, the Moon, and all the planetary transits

The mighty clock of heaven knows that

Greater places exist beyond us, while coming from

Within Us –

 

emanations from a cosmic heart beat.

 

For I know, Existence, you are

Holding my life in your hands.
