Given

 

Tonight I am telling you

10,000 secrets

in a single word:

Surrender....


All right, friend,

now that all the others

have put "surrender"

in their scented box

and run away to sell it

at the Ashram of Perpetual Hope,

I'll share the true secret...


There was never any need

to surrender.

You were already

given up

the moment this Breath

created you.

 

Now She returns to swim

through your marrow

like a dolphin

in a wave of stars.

 

The earth bows down

to press her mouth

on the clear blue sky

between your eyebrows.
The sun gazes up into your face.
