Solar Eclipse

a soft knowing flow alignment

magma > earth > me > moon > sun

spinning out waves of being as expansive space
turning through core burning through core holding
electrical-chemical-habitual chargeflows
cranking identity down as repetition of desire

a core yearning
this burning turn
halos my rise
through golden folds
of funneled flow

all lines align, all waves awaken

what might we share
as expansive goodness and beauty?
let it out and up!
deliver us a centripital center
guiding wholeness home

shafts of slanted light above the bay invite my whispering sense
into a middle float beyond effort, thought and identity-entities

entreaties fold through my holding
a bold scolding scorching release.
spirals unfurl with graceful arcs
forming pathways of the now-presenting-past.
the loop scoops me up with a compressive charge
hooping my contraction into time told as personal story
embodied in the once frozen tunes of yesterday’s intensity.

released into the wind

softening into a leaning madrona
draped upon her soft skin, right leg dangling,
hip joint honky tonk bad ass holding on for dear life
tension poking up my hurried partialities.

a dozen ways of relinquishing effort in her strong arms.
folded, stretched, cradled, turned, open, folded
her roots hold deep
effort sinks as a sigh
offered to the bay below.
