idon'tknow

i am usually willing to jump across the chasm
of idon'tknow into the great unknown..

growing up ^
taking the step on the thousand mile path..
a spiral trail that twirls on the tip of an ascending rod..

breathe
deep sighs that buoy up ^
restoring by sheer height
the crack of any broken heart..
each inhale < heals the letting go of each exhale > ..

carrying baskets of mending, pieces of patch
the in-between-ness..the synapse..the abyss..
the gap..the interval..

these stitches leap the bridge to wholeness..
  a second coming
  of our own true self..
  the original face..
step up ^ step up ^

celebrating the solitude of solo flying
each to each own .. always..
an unchaperoned journey ~
o how the shimmering halo
above the crown lights the way !

wrapped up in the dance of life
- a gift for the gods and goddesses -
the play of life..lila..spins  like a top...
the unknown squirms loose
from comfort farm mulch
uncovering its presence all along

how are you to do it?
you have simply to jump straight in and not to think,
"where shall i fall? what will happen to me?"
it is the hesitation of the mind that prevents you -
you must simply let yourself go.

this then ... not the end
but the very beginning.....

if you don't know where you're going
any road will take you there ~
