reconstructing self
again
creating anew an old image
of inner peace
through
calm reflection and positive motivation
seeking to inspire what I know lives within
without breaking stride
or losing sight of pre-planned
future goals –
unable to focus
on what presently presents itself
needing only to unwrap this gift
I sit puzzled by the miracle of Scotch tape
sizing up the worthiest of adversaries
slowly peeling back hidden gems
while undermining the job –
realistically, I always knew what was inside
once again I find myself face to face
with my choices
and what they mean
to my life, both long term
and short –
without a moment’s notice
I shoot into the ether
forcefully jetted into the upper stratosphere
looking down on all of creation
momentarily
awestruck and reinvigorated
I sense my place in the all that is everything
and recognize again
we are one –
