Away from the boom of urban jungles I rest on the soft hammock of night unruffled…centered Just inhaling the tranquility which binds me To an inner refuge where chakras align-- As the noise from life’s thud shuts down. This fire-light within rises in violet spirals; A holy interval transcending time and motion That the nearness of grace eases my breath, my womb circling mantra ascending-- While the altar of my soul enshrines A hiatus which makes me invisible, Redeemed from earth’s tongues of Babel. 8/31/2019 Silence Poetry Contest: For Silent One
