it brings me to my knees,
figuratively & literally.
i’m not sure what there is to say or do,
besides offer a million thank-yous
like a mantra
to whatever wild, cosmic forces
have delivered me
over many hurdles,
through much devastation
to this moment.
to this middle-space of grace,
in which i feel such searing clarity,
total alignment with purpose,
complete awareness & awe
of life’s stunning synchronicities.
& where, with dream collaborators,
i have made something that reflects
the little i know to be true for sure—
the wisdom i’ve gained so far
from the pain, the mudane, & the elation:
everything is connected,
connection is a balm,
& somehow,
ultimately,
all is well.
