I wrote this a few weeks ago…and finished it today:
To not be a wound
To not be a wound
is all-encompassing;
It is all-consuming
To not be a wound
is dark and heavy;
a drag, a debt
To not be a wound
is terribly quiet;
a terror, a truce
To be a wound
is a deathly stench;
It is raw and ruthless
Yet:
Please do not cover me
Please keep looking
Please let me be
The space; the air,
the touch; the stare,
is how I,
through me,
will heal

May all your Nows be Here
Oh my goodness Katrine… that touched a spot in my heart I did not know I had…
Thank You.
-Shanti.
Thank you, Shanti
I love it when that happens
May all your Nows be Here
Beautiful Katrine, raw and ruthless.
This has penetrated deep into my being and reminds me of seeing a physically deformed or disabled person who has accepted their lot and radiates a love and acceptance that makes it possible for everyone else to accept them.
We are all disabled and deformed inside and accepting our wound and laying it bare, is healing for all of us.
Thank you
