Reaching the Crossroads of Infinity

Choosing directional pull

At the crossroads — yet again — sorting through the rubble. Brushing off the dirt — tainted sandaled feet — hoping for smoother ground.

Readied pounce — opportunities knocking louder than before — yet still a tethering to grounded floors. Waiting patiently — all systems go — like a rocket ship blasting to altered galaxies.

Bated breath — anxiety exchanging glimpses of weightless being — it is nearly time. Anticipation — childhood memories of the red, white, and blue flavor of bomb-pops delight.

Just the mere observation of events — years of pain lifting with an immediate breath — the time has come — realities are shifting. Listen to the body sing — effortless movement hitherto — confirmation received in releasing all there ever was.

Songbirds singing — praises for another day — echoing songs of past, present, and future more. Our days have passed — no longer bound to the songs of the fallen ones.

Breathing in the past — ancient ones forgotten tune — releasing one final breath. Breathing in the future — calling all angels — possibilities left at the crossroads of infinity.

Thank you Diana C., Spyder, Ravyne Hawke, and the whole Know Thyself Heal Thyself family for holding this sacred space.

Much gratitude for those who take time to read, ponder, and allow the inner workings of self to come forward. Grateful for the feedback, love shared, and, more importantly, the Dance with Inspiration. Deep Peace.
