The Gravity of Being
Spirit mist hangs
About in vaporous
Clouds suspended miles
Above the collective seas.
The universe shifts
And vapors coalesce
Into physical droplets,
Radiating possibilities.
Immediately the descent
Begins as the
Gravity of Being exerts
Its irresistible attraction.
Down we fall
Forehead to cheek
Heart to heart
Fist to fist.
Searching for purpose
Yearning for redemption
Rejoicing with abandon
Crying out in fear.
Only to return
In the end to the
Great Mother Sea,
Regaining our unity.
The glory of our
Brief fall from grace
Finally illuminated by the
Ecstasy of Reunion.
