resolve hardness
be like water
let adamant gravity
draw you down
when the sun shines
warming summer dew
let ego evaporate
over luminous time
when radiant night comes
turn your adjacent self
inside out
become crystalline
take a frosty view
become hoary if you must
be like collective water
then vaporize into atmosphere
if corrective life
boils you away
once you are broiled
foiled and buried
you'll want to rise
a yeasty leavening
amongst those feisty spring places
refreshed and healing
spell binding earth
minding soul and spirit
issued from within
deep remarkable darkness
out of mirthful caves
admittance into serpentine fissures
you have remitted
fractured the world
absolved by your inner strength
eroding every past life
when you were glacial
engulfed over years and years
carving magnificent murals
gouging channels through sacred land
then you erupted
consummated by flowing lava
becoming fumaroles emitting billowing steam
streaming from inner earth
hard core issuance
concurrent outward spewing
belched from a karmic centre
those myriads of noxious clouds
garnered with your sulfur breath
smothering your creative self
vexed by those vapour dreams
your image fogs the bloody mirror
so you never see yourself
upon instant change
spontaneous creation
swirling and ranging into view
you are gathering there
but who truly cares
where there are sparks of life
sparkling water pools everywhere
drop by remarkable drop
you live your phenomenal life
drop by creative drop
you invent a trickling stream
building a riverbed
your ingenious mystery
washing over historic earth
finally realizing expansion
into a life giving sea
there you envision
more visceral creation
your galactic gauge
which is eminently limitless
like an elephant's true love
unlimited trumpeting
luxuriating in endless galaxies and waterholes
like Gods and Goddesses
relishing time and everything
something we all should do and have
but don't always have
no matter what we do or say
we're searching for everything
something good in every way
