time’s line

the journey of a breath

set for

(a) time,

while gently scrutinizing breathing,

i watch the contraction of a line.

a movement, not in body, but in mind.

***

linear consternations peel away to reveal the

Synchronicity

Simultaneity

Concurrence

of experience.

***

an inhale

stops short,

the glottis catch,

the mantra crack,

a useless reservation

***

til realization settles.

the breath is communication:

so long as it moves,

we are in conversation.

we are whole.
