“The roots of all living things are tied together. Deep in the ground of being, they tangle and embrace. If we look deeply, we find that we do not have a separate self-identity, a self that does not include sun and wind, earth and water, creatures and plants, and one another.”

— Joan Halifax

we traveled together but only I was moved

flowing through and into experience

drinking in the no-you no-me endless world

we were the rhythm in the song

moving or staying still it’s all the same

there’s always something that needs to be washed

spin out or wind in and it’s the same again

we are black holes giving birth to new worlds

and we plunge fingers into warm water

pull out a bowl and wipe it clean

my heart thumping your hand reaching a tide turning

a mop splattering grey waves on the shore

waltzing to pulses of sound in the air we breath

I rotated around your axis lost in the beat

of mornings and wide roads and nights

in strange towns and eat and wash dishes and sleep

and you were there too I’m sure of it

life gets you like that sometimes

one minute I’m buying groceries

the next contemplating my place in the universe

thinking about infinity on the inside

while my outsides catch the number six bus

and sometimes I’ll look out of a dirty window

at the most beautiful sunset I’ve ever seen

and sometimes the dance I perform

to avoid stepping in a pile of dog shit on the path

will bring a smile to the face of a stranger and this

this is something worth seeing

The older you get, the more you choose calm over chaos and distance over disrespect. Drama becomes intolerable to you and your peace becomes your ultimate priority. You start surrounding yourself with people who are good for your mental health, heart and soul.

Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this too, was a gift.
