let nothing be the call
Nothingness is the sister of possibility. It makes an urgent space for that which is new, surprising, and unexpected. When you feel nothingness and emptiness gnawing at your life, there is no need to despair. This is a call from your soul, awakening your life to new possibilities.
– John O’Donohue

We hurry through the so-called boring things
in order to attend to that which we deem
more important, interesting.
Perhaps the final freedom will be a recognition
that everything in every moment is essential
and that nothing at all is important.
~ Helen Luke
Let’s be nothing
You and I
let’s stand together
Souls naked
skin removed
take me into you
I will do the same
We will be fog
Rising as Mist
You will become me
as our hearts become one
I will Fade into You
nothing for eternity
everything for the days after

voices
quiet enough
to allow for the next
heart found still beating
in a little ravine
descent — shush
— it’s fine
it’s precisely the shopping
things around
can’t be anymore
lost — the ability
to touch and listen
stopped
— the trying to reach
and bend
new normal
is a pool on the floor
previous ways in the moment
saw sunset
the deep saw depth charges
how about you
recall everywhere research
meddles
marvel at every proof —
the heart’s this or it’s that
— and they
all but nailed it
the hurt
too
me I’m waiting
like the person said
to be led
away from
this focus they first advised
trying not to think
that far ahead
— for a
change
waiting to be led away
any takers
fulfill the knots
to what was legacy
while
up there ahead
a levitation is in progress
someone
in the rafters
oh my
she just may be
that
warning

Life is not passing you by.
Life is inviting you in.
Inviting you into the simple and
sudden moments of quiet,
yet invigorating bliss that veer
on the wind and into your stilled body,
sending tingles through your spirit.
Life is not passing you by.
Life is drawing you close.
Pulling you in and calling you towards
an awakening spark that will ignite
the purest of imaginative thought
and vision into being.
Life is not overlooking you,
underestimating you,
or merely passing through.
Life is subtly requesting you take all
you’ve held safely within and
give it room to be birthed
into creative expression.
No, life has not heartlessly given up on you.
Life is graciously standing by.

Wonder is the heaviest element on the periodic table. Even a tiny fleck of it stops time.
