Like a pigeon on the roof.
Perched.
Looking
askance.
Askew.
Wondering why
we are
the way
we are.
Do not align yourself to the physical.
It is fleeting and arbitrary.
And bound to disappoint.
Be
Be here
Be now
Be love.
He spoke as he closed his eyes
– for the last time.
It’s a brittle existence on this plain.
But we will all be one.
