little wren

there's a little brown wren
that comes to my window
peers in
all day long
surprising me
with his curiosity
crooking his head
this way and that,

white Nimbus clouds
are crowding the baby blue
sky

on the other side of the window,
i can fly
"everything i am fleeing
is right here inside of me"*





* sentence from Nausher in his amazing video... the other side of the mirror...

ah, we fly

to flee or embrace. Tis mostly spiders that greet me importunately, and I welcome them, strong medicine. Cheers, Jess

i think i’ve seen those

i think i've seen those spiders, thousands of newborn little spiders of light emerging from some kind of cosmic egg. like that? "There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic." Anais Nin

yes, like that

and when grown they weave magic medicine. And we all know medicine can be healing, inspiring and deadly. Cheers, Jess
