as if to arouse you from my sleep,
as if to warn me
about complacency
and the deep deadenss
that arrives
from a life of too much familiarity.

Those creative possibilities are beautiful, all in their own time. Give yourself the gift of room in time. Let this knowing in your body and your heart lead the…
