BOTH WATER & BRIDGES
(for Staceyann in the space/time continuum) every "now" has its own joys, its own precisely because the water is where ever, whom ever you touch, build a crossing, a way to connect, a bridge and so to be whole is to be both: life is motion/movement. keep going. howsoever old you grow, share your beauty, —kalamu ya salaam
a fear expressed is a fear reduced
don't let anxieties about the future, curdle
the sweet of tasting in the present
sorrows. every lived moment is now. it is
not the water but the bridge that ages
constantly renewing... and so, keep running
be water, renew and run, run and renew and
build bridges, links, one to the other
whomsoever the other is, we should create
built by each of us to the other of us
as we flow on and follow our own paths
be water constantly running
be bridges constantly built
share the beauty of your flowing, the beauty
of your bridges connecting everywhere
build more bridges. be both water and
bridge, flow & connection—a luta continua...
