An Ache in Your Heart is a Good Thing

Aching heart
Buzzing feet
Twitching eye
The body a universe unto itself

What would you have me know?

Sliced down the middle
Anima and Animus destined to meet
But when does night become day?
How does day become night, Knight?

Fusion eludes

The alchemy of marriage achieved and celebrated
The mind has led this dance
The body destined to follow as it dives and swirls and jives and sways
The steps are not taught
They live inside you

Absorb me

Stitch me to your shadow

Weave the web with mystical silk
And catch me
I Am food—sustenance for the monsters

The truth lies in the marrow of my bones
The skeleton key searches for the dusty lock
Peer into the eye
Unlock the truth that resides there
Remember your name

All is not lost
The treasure cannot be destroyed
Your body is the map
Rest in the truth that you cannot force or cajole or strive or achieve
Just as the lilies in the fields grow
Just as the bird flies
Just as the animal is clothed in its fur
So too your body exists in perfect knowing

Release your ideas
You know not what you do
Your amnesia a gift

Feel the pangs
Embrace the aches
Trust the cells to be unlocked by the key you could never divorce yourself from
Do not allow your ignorance to dismay you
Trust your innocence
Revel in your innocence
Believe that none of this is your fault
Allow Divinity to have its way
Not guilty
Not guilty
not guilty
The blood of the lamb has spoken and cannot be silenced

Worthy are you
Holy are you

For now, sweet Karen, for now, know that the marriage has been ordained and celebrated fully across the veil
The bride and bridegroom have crossed the eternal threshold and paved the way for all sentient beings

Well done good and faithful servant
Well done

The skeleton key thrums and hums the hue of green
And sets the captives free.

So mote it be
And so it is.

Namaste.
