bare bones

How clever I am!
I decorate my skeleton
and walk around
as if I am someone.

Festooning it with a persona,
draping it with will and intention,
going out there to be some body.

  1. I really enjoy the way you ended this with "some body." Yes, you are very clever!

  3. It's been fun getting to know each other as some body. Some day, our some bodies will be gone. We will once again be One. Remembering we are One while we are still some body, however, allows Oneness to seep into this distracted temporary life; resonating to flip on that switch of awareness in ourselves and in others, allowing our separation, perhaps only for an instant, to be displaced by a shared vision of something greater.

    Have all of us some bodies remembered to resonate in Oneness today? Have we all remembered, for just one moment, to engage some other body in this Holy practice?

    As my friend Lizzie says, until then, Holy Now.
