we are
of many
droplets
of sounds
the song of unity bubbles up and out of us
we carry many inside
the one of romantic folly
the one with hearts breaking, feeling each crack
the one which flows with the currents of air, lifting up, lifting all of us up
the one burrowing, blind, yet with a nose so trained, so sensitive
she finds roots and is the fascia of and throughout them all
the child finding and seeking and finding and seeking and finding adventure, everywhere
all the time. all the time. all the time. all throughout time. all across time.
the great mother, the world mother, the one with cosmic runes etched into a body of dust
i think she would dissolve into the nothingness without them
the one who writes this, the witness, the mediator, the balance, the one with a tree for a heart
portals portals, eyes open, everywhere, seeing, being, being one, it is I
even this one, with eyes for lips and eyes for hips and eyes for fingers is here
honored, seen, the eye cannot look upon itself, and yet all it sees is all, as one
she would certainty collapse into herself if it weren’t for the rest of us holding her edges,
showing her where she is and where she is not, the line of flipping polarities
she would swallow herself whole, she would make our fabric unravel, i think i fear her
how can she be if not for the collective effort to keep her here?
we fear her, we need her, she is the eye, and we are her body.
and an infinity more …
we are it all, feeling, expressing, interpreting, being, all at once, alternating, flowing, being
i hear the sounds of the sky creatures, birds we call them, the ones with wings, like the one of us who hears the symphonies and loses their self in the frequency of the harmonics
this fleshy form, the one with arms and legs and those things they call toes, is our vessel. it is made of mostly the quietness of silence, not the roar of it. she will turn to earthdust. and we’ll go back to the stars.
