I'm grateful for discernment

to pick one from the many

the magpie who sings knows

which to peck on from multitudes

hiding in the rich soil

grass, pebbles, sticks, dried leaves

petals, cap, gills, annulus, stalk

the rooster knows when to crow

leaves when to grow, wither, and fall

panther eats enough not much more

each kill with grace and elegance

her movements art

poetry in motion

in shock prey who survive

shake off freeze and flight

resets

unshackles

free to live another day in the wild

nothing left but a curiosity, innocence of child

amphipathic phospholipids know

which molecules of water to love, which to fear

a Bene Gesserit transmutes poison

with the Voice have you in her tow

she senses truth like a fine tooth comb

weirding way with her bare hands you she can entomb 

to honour mind, body, relationships, environment

with utmost care

presence,attention is the path

meaningful desire

aspiration, live at the zenith

actualised potential, potentialised actual

atonement at one moment at one meant

the whole story happens at every moment.
