It's weird to not recognize yourself
But to
know yourself
The view shifted
I'm at the very beginning
New and old at the same time
I see the millennia stretched out behind me
Or is it /Are they
In front?
What is up/down/back/forward
For I am everywhere
Round & Sleek
Spiky & Broad
Lush & Barren
Seeking, Finding, Learning, Growing
I cannot be contained
Oh! How they have tried!
I tried.
Impossible!
Gift & Curse. Curse & Gift.
Pulsing & extending into the abyss
Beyond this realm & into the
next
the next, next
Eternal
and changed
Nurtured. Supported.
Even when truth vision was seemingly obscured
The grace and benevolent compassion that encompasses and embraces
the inner, the outer.
Near, far, far & closer
still
As the expansion, the spiral hastens its dance
And all the while I stand poised in that mirror waiting for the reflection to once again be familiar
I see you too on my journey's left & right
Rising. We witness each other's emergence from the chrysalis
smiling on our way out of
the Illusion.
