The Captain's Gaze I
The Captain's Gaze I
My hands to your flank, mane so thick, coat of blue
Symbiosis of all creatures, matter connect, fusion through
The mirror for my journey, depth of glimpse into my soul
The gift of joining, grafting, that my be.ing feel the whole
Why’d I think a disconnect was my portion from the ALL ?
The soil, your hooves, the dust, your sole
Hidden ergots under feathers, strength of pastern, coffin bone
Your conformation, tripped transformation, in hand, a switch of mind
The earth, my bones, your eye, my heart
Singular Brush, strokes of expression, singular purpose of confession
The invitation of true clarity, the ALL welcoming me home
Our myriad in the mycelium, breathe, move, we ARE as one
Safe family of affection, we have never been alone
Full inside, fullness outside, filled to course and overflow
The dance, the sync, chronologically we stepped
In phase, release, at last we truly slept
Knit me O Equilibrium to the bedrock of Your peace
An ease, a health, a sigh, relief
