We constantly pave over our experience with life,
forgetting that we are merely the parchment,
the visible sacrament for the invisible omnipresence,
that breathes and shines through us.
We are connected,
yea, super-saturated
in the simple, yet profound divine-ness,
the utterly fantastical-ness,
when we open to the here and now.
Once, I was lost
in the delusion,
the pain wrought by the falseness
held in separation.
I see and appreciate this now
as the small me holding on to personal discomfort;
the childhood’s pain obsessed over,
energizing my personal delusion,
paying forward our collective nightmare.
I give all this up
to honor the in-being
within me
within you
within all of us.
This is what I am.
