Celebrate the silence!
The entirety without.
Magical inclination,
respiration suspended,
understanding overwhelmed.
Breath collected inside
of the chest, awaits its
expulsion, expression.
At once frozen and aflame,
a twisting, hurtling spiral.
Would that I could live
aloft, hanging like this,
nearly floating forever.
Dissolve into the air,
become weightless to fly.
Where to go? Where not?
Limitless atmosphere,
invisible universe,
when shall I join you?
I hear your voice,
the waterlike sound
of wind through leaves.
"You already have."
I have to close my eyes to
remember, but in the absence
of light, there you are.
Light may only pass through.
You permit her entrance request.
I develop the light,
but I inhabit the air.
I inquire to the creator of both,
is it so necessary that the two
must be such enemies?
Can we not learn
to live in harmony, as three,
like all of your precious symbols?
The spirit-light of man,
such a delicate issue.
For in its nature,
the wind spirit tends toward
curiosity and exploration.
Yet the soul of light is
without a seeking bone
in its imperceptible body.
The light is sought and found,
never seeking, never finding.
Let the wind assist the light
and let the light aid the wind
Let man be conscious
of this fragile dance.
Spirit-Light of Man
