[messyah]

a benediction for moving




with every step you take
upon the path of life
you must choose within yourself
what breath, what vast energy you expose.

you are not "packing your shit"
you are not "having some shit to do"
you are not -
and there is nothing -
of "shit" -
in what *you* have to do

you are living life
in all its ups and downs
living life in this case sideways
surround yourself with the meaning of your life
it is a time of change
it is a time of destiny
it is a dime a dozen
it is time

imbue every word you say with meaning
as you lovingly caress the things
which for you have meaning
pack them carefully
bind them round with softness
so they be not broken on the other side
kiss each moment upon the lips
as you place its residue away

in trash,
in boxes,
in your heart,
in your mind,
in your soul
you are the stuff that owns you
own it now
in that drifting moment
of transition

take control of what you will become
and become it through your every movement
as you pack your beautiful things away
in boxes
and softness
so that when tomorrow comes
you'll be facing it with all you need
centered
grounded
and alive with purpose
