when you breathe in

standing – wait while the breath and body settle – breathe naturally – no control

now

see how the in breath lifts the soft sail of the body

opening your waist – full sail on the breeze

and does your spine absorb the movement fully?

see how the strings that hold your shoulders slacken,
so they float up – buoyant

how hopeful this feels!

a small and certain resurrection …
