short poem
i dance life
whole
complete
meaning what i am
dancing dark and light
awake and asleep
sane and insane
authentic
authentically convicted
no care for appearance
mine or others
all splinters are yet whole
listening fully
hearing what is said
seeing what is done
inside and out
the same
feeling what is
no excuses
deep and profound
or flippant and superficial
no hiding, only seeking
pleasure myself or others
as needed, done
from the core
close to the bone
where the blood flows
whole and savage
i celebrate
