Comfort Zone

 

They say we should bust out of our comfort zone. I love my comfort zone. I love my comfort zone so much, I decided to expand it. My comfort zone swells over forests, cities, mountains. My comfort zone includes the whole nation, expands into the clouds, embraces the moon and sun, the Milky Way, Andromeda, the wild churning ocean of galaxies, many of them so distant their light hasn't yet arrived. If you feel lost and confused, don't worry. You are already resting in my comfort zone. Just lie down in the meadow for awhile, listen to the bees. Fall asleep and let your nerves root down into fallow loam. Drink up my sap into your bones, and dream that you are tiny, even tinier, a lady bug, lost in a thistle and clover cathedral. Gaze up into the crystal dome of blue. You are welcome here. I hope you are very comfortable. It's good to be lost. I am lost too. Both of us, lost in the zone.
