i have been making so much art
that it can feel overwhelming
i am grateful for this
especially in comparison to times
of nothingness — still
i haven’t taken time to go back
through this patreon diary
and see all that has emerged and become
i must remind myself to slow down,
breathe - breath by breath, day by day
do not only create - turn around, witness
the creation - hold space for that
electric, creative force - i always bow
to That, may we remember to be still
who is creating? breathe slowly, deeply
thank you Sky. thank you earth.
thank you waters. thank you
now. integrate the parts …
here, a poem:
*
Everything that was broken has
forgotten its brokenness. I live
now in a sky-house, through every
window the sun. Also your presence.
Our touching, our stories. Earthy
and holy both. How can this be, but
it is. Every day has something in
it whose name is Forever.
