Meditation
Meditation
Now I am a god
stirring to life.
Now my neck
is stretching upward,
now my lips are growing thick.
Now Krishna is
playing his flute nearby.
Now I am a woman
wearing a veil,
bringing an offering
in her bowl.
Now I am the face
of a lion,
observing.
Now I am a giant
tossing bodies
over the cliff.
Now I am wearing jewels
for eyes.
Now Ganesha has come,
bringer of change.
Ganesha wants to dance.
My hands move in invisible
gestures.
The gods become music.
My ears are filling with light.
