maybe the kingdom of heaven is...


maybe the kingdom of heaven
is in us
it is inside (small) 
and outside (big) 
and you are housed
in it all
while we are housed 
in you

if everything is connected 
maybe it is the joint 
as we bend
in accord we spin
but for each (micro) movement 
we make 
each decision
you adjust (macro) 
seeing  
breathing 
directing  

living in your kingdom breathe 
reconciliation becomes infinite 
but so sure

maybe it is the thought 
that creates chemistry 
inside 
and the air that all the earth (creation) follows 
the gravity that make us fall hard
outside

like birds in pattern of
murmuration 
we, in community, 
are
working it out

you place us side by side 
each selection ripples
moving the whole
like a love machine
we work 
revolve 

you said it isn't about me
but it is... isn't it? 
only bigger 
it is bigger

we are shaped
like birds 
like microorganisms 
like star cluster
and you have us

Clarity

The clarity 
Kept coming in all afternoon
Overwhelming me
Until I decided to let it
Wash over
I still don't know one thing
But I have perfect and undeniable peace
It is so close to me 
He is right here

Not knowledge 
Perspective 
I can see everything from a soft, distant place
But it is also dangerously close
A net that I am caught up in
Ultimate intimacy
It has me in it, and him & them
This is what is meant by
Interconnected
Even 'the people I have never seen'

He kept telling me 
It was not about me
It was, though
Wasn't it? 
Just bigger
It is bigger

How can I stay here
forever? 
It is the way we are meant to be
Completed
It is 
Perfect Love
And it is casting out 
All fear
