Art by Dan-Ah Kim
I cannot tell you how or why.
I am sitting here in love
with life and the world.
Beyond.
Something else emerges.
As if darkness were meeting light.
a ripple in one space resonates
throughout eternity
What are the parameters of
these false boundaries? What
am I too terrified to unleash?
Once again, my rapture
stretches out in every direction.
I falter…
for one moment.
And.
Tumble.
Wait.
I know what you’re thinking.
Don’t make assumptions.
Don’t say a word.
Just stay.
Bear witness.
Watch me tether
myself firmly to this ground.
