RE: Ignite

RE: Ignite

me .........

Take me back

Push me forward

Stop me still

Now

Give me a live fire

Any day

Any time

Over frantic live wire

Let me breathe

In

The natural world

Till I’m fine

Let me feel

Let me touch

Let me smell

Let me think these sensual things

And

Take them in

Let me assimilate

That which doth stimulate

me ........

the notes of jazz

the strings of guitar

the plucking of cellos

The sounds

of artistic musical expression

Let me see in my mind’s eyes

Sounds sometimes bizarre

Their notations

Wrapping around me

Like a straight jacket

Restrictive

Yet blissfully so

Let

The heat of

singeing coals

chatter around

licking flames

Purple

Orange

White

Blue

Abstract

Me

And You

Let us talk

And feel our words .......

Deeply

With purpose and knowing

........  and awe

Give me the sight

of a rising full moon

in the arid

Thabazimbi  bushveld

with My Lover

completely naked

yet

fully bathed

and clothed

in the fabric beams

of

the halo-ing moon’s light

Unabashed

Unafraid

Glorified

Let me celebrate

him and me

Let me be

Free

Let me spread my arms

Let me dance

(even if just sometimes in my mind)

I (want to)

Let go

And listen to

The vineyard’s elixir

feeding through my veins

the sound of the embracing response

of my limbs

the sweet memories of where we departed

and have just now arrived

the notes reaching out of the speakers

into every space of the room

and my body

The bass

The drums

how their rhythms mimic that of my own

and reverberate soothingly

off the rocks of my inner cave

I

move

from my core

I

respond

freely

I

sense

the power

External life

sinks in through the pores of

my subcutaneous layers

(called skin)

as an intravenous drip

I

am

inspired

fed

elevated

Re-ignited....

I

feel ........

deeply .......

intensely .......

I

imaginate

speak

share

And that’s what matters the most

THAT which  scares us to our core

FORCES us .....

To our point of Origin .........

The PLACE that really makes us tick.

What makes you tick?

Can you go there?

 for just a few moments?

Can you keep breathing, even when you can’t?

And still listen?

Can you

Hear

What You have to say? ..........

Without you interrupting?

And RE: Ignite?
