Duality, 

Liminal Spaces.

Nothing is final.

No feeling is final.

It is not too far away

Time is not against me

My body works to protect me 

I get to belly laugh

and zone out 

and cry 

and feel angry 

I get to move in 

and go back

and go past again

I get to retrace

and remind

perplexed,

   but not in despair 

I persist -- 

despite the nagging

  aching 

  gut-turning humanity inside me

I am a jar of clay

“I am scattered in its whirl”

I am steady 

I am shaky 

I am both and nothing alone 

more with You 

guiding me 

within, without     Both.
