27th contemplation of desire 4/14/16

Desire dwells on the weighty side of light

where an ever so shallow breath

invites your kinesthetic attention.

It is there, for you to embrace the message,

for you to provoke passion from the unknown.

It is desire’s reveille interjecting.

This, as desire, is not the cart before the horse.

It is the living before the knowing.

It is what is drawn to you

rather than what you direct.

Although efforting is a popularized rewarding style, 

and parenting is a popularized logistical style

and retentive knowledge

is a popularized captivating style,

desire is a becoming style.

Accuse desire of trespassing on your conscious state

and there is little that you can do.

For accusations aside,

desire is a simple meal for growth

and not a supplement to take

for being on the mend . . .
