Who Is She?


She is a slight excitation

in the field of unfathomable rest,

the ever so gentle whisper

of a mighty healing wind.

Her singing bowl is your heart

when quietness overflows.

Her wisdom taught God how to play.

Her wings of emptiness make an M

over the vast Enso of the Omkar moon.

Like a gander, She knows how to return.

If the breath of the Goddess is here,

the poem flows.

If not, no work can make a poem.

If the breath of the Goddess is here,

the plum ripens.

It falls, and its thud is sweetness.

No amount of work can make a plum.

The present moment is the splendor

at the end of time,

where all pilgrim paths gush

into her pool of healing waters.

The holy turbulence of stillness

washes away every fear.

Viruses of doubt cannot survive 

her invisible radiance.

She loosens her bling in the Milky Way.

Magdalene, Laldev, Rabia, Mechthild. 

You must bathe in the milk of her name.

Become naked and put on her purity.

your gown is the midnight silence

of deadly wings.

She is the owl.  

When you become her Knower,  

the distant stars are within you.

They glorify your bones.

The Goddess of September is That

which makes your body shine.
