Will we allow ourselves to be cracked open, personally and collectively, during this pandemic and beyond? Will we discover a depth of love and compassion that transforms who we are, what we value, and how we live as a species on this planet?

We know, midst the raging seas,

An inner buoyancy,

An innate truth that is whole

when all around us disintegrates.

At night the

Restlessness,

unrelenting for hours,

beckons, agitates, disrupts…

Life breaks into me

as Golden Light

without origin or endpoint,

coursing nightly through my veins.
