Wind Brother
Brother Wind
Brother of the slashing sword
Slicing
Spinning
Sobbing
Amidst all of the noise
Universal Mind
Expansive
You who reach beyond, above
Yet unable
To form a plan
For your own, embodied life
.
Swirling
Spinning
Slashing
Holding back the darkness
Ideas, grand, so many
You cannot choose
You keep spinning
You keep slashing
You keep
Heaving
.
Wishing for calm
Wishing for the Core
Wishing to find your Way
To the soul heart
Your own Center
.
Body
That dear body
Carrying you
Carrying this electrified, pulsing antennae
It
Is calling you home
.
With pains, radiating
Below
In the very center of your being
Screaming
Pleading
For you to come down
For you to pay attention
For you to decide
.
Wind Brother
You are the lightning, brilliance
A champion to many causes
Aside from your own
.
Soul
Will you commit?
When
She asks
When She pleads
When She begs you, radiating
Will you come home
To be held
By Her
Center?
.
Brother Wind
Wind Brother
Brother of the slashing sword
May your power
Spiral inward
May your brilliance
Serve the soul
May your tired
And spinning
And slashing
And heaving
Heart
Come home
.
