higher hoop. higher hope.



I feel;
SEE the Earth gyrate beneath me.
I don't need anyone who does not need me.
The concentric circles,
oh they make love beneath me;
start out solo,
overlap,
and then they completely absorb 
and 
JUST BE.


I am their center;
they have no other need but me.
When I can, I enter
and then they exist as I twist.
I control their motion
but they've taken me to the ocean.
I slip inside a place
where there is no question
of devotion.
Such a peaceful, quiet evolution.



I can feel individuality 
completely taking over me
and I contemplate 
why I ever lost this state.

["Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, 
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, 
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails."
I Corinthians 13:4-8]*


Love does not ask us to change
but it has the power to exchange 
our past selves for a new, broader range.


*you should all ready know
but if you don't this quote came from the bible.
