Meditation
“Why don’t people know about this.” I think
As my body soars away from my seat
I feel as thought I’m filling the space
like water once shaped to the pipes
filling the kitchen sink
I am a hot air balloon
my breath in lungs filling
the particles disperse that once shaped my skin
that once told everyone what color I was in
which played like a magicians greatest illusion
the facade that this body is my main attraction
I feel the atoms reach and reach
farther than I ever believed
I feel myself
I’m filling the room
like the ocean surrounding the Earth’s shores
I assume
this is what it feels like to notice
to watch your breath
to observe the vessel of flesh
this is what it means to be immortal
blending like water colors with the eternal
tuning in to the fine print
the frequencies we believe to exist
but as I’m out here
I pause
I be
I notice that there is nothing here but me
I am all there is to see
One with you and one with me
We preach and teach how to be free
Such rules like chains around our feet
There is nothing to know
said the trees and bees
all there is to do is be
the happiest that you can be
share your love with living things
spread, like fire, peace and breathe
You are enough it says to me
this ocean I've blended in to be
