Stoop To Rise

living light crystallised
descent restriction
ascent to heaven’s 
by crucifixion 

that that confines
also liberates
void centric stance
always celebrates

separation and union
polarity dance
on choosing stillness 
we advance 

life’s a springboard
for ascent
if we grant
love consent

this reminds me of Jacob's ladder. A ladder of love.
