Love
If Whitman sings the body electric
I might say smooth creamy vibrant
Grounded and flying, Still and whiplash fast
Sharp and flowing gentle as good night or morning
And a day full, all liminal in fullness
Then fear is tight, constricted, like fragile glass
The very breath feels heavy
As if to weigh down the too light body
Where it should float the vibrant smoothness
And breathe... Tight, foothills of panic, tension
Cheeks blow
Mind notes parasympathetic
Bright mind where aligned is flowing
Like Whitman's choir singing
But here stalled and waiting
Fear drives each slow step, twilight
Cheeks blow
Mind notes parasympathetic
Breathe
The smoke of his once-ness, in the beginningless now
This is not the liminal of fullness
Past comes into present
Present orchestral in hues of vibrant smoothness
Though yes, still shot with fear of broken glass
And so another turn around the spiral
Yet tomorrow
The very air sings the body electric
Liminal in fullness, bright mind dances
Joy as it turns the diamond, in Indira's net it sparkles
Sharpest thoughts, the fastest flowing
Liminal in fullness, body whiplash fast
Then earth and sea too sparkle
Gentle flowing as fire rises
The body breathes
The smoke of his once-ness lost its embers
In each body our embers sparkle
Glow in each other's light and turn the diamond
And so another turn around the spiral
