The Dance
Dancing clumsily between two worlds
passionate physicality non-attached spirituality
craving affection
craving freedom
craving
where is the balance just a hoped for vision?
or the purpose of incarnating in human form
daring to dance and delight
myself in one e x t r e m e
or the other
a calidescope of physical
ecstasy
an ocean of blissful spiritual experience
with no b o u n d a r y fear pokes its face into the mirror of my mind when I focus on
imagined
future events
the pain of attachment when the music of the dance stops
serving to remind me to shift my attention
inward
to
the
stillpoint
the present moment
where
all love abides.
