Why I Am Here
At the Planet Gym
embodying my best business
when suddenly I wonder
Why am I here?
repeats
and repeats
in my wandering ear
And what magic
might appear
Isn't that queer?
Not WHY am I here
with these Straight People
because this overpopulated question
may obscure other
quieter
ambidextrously resourceful directions
less shaded by fear
of robust diversity
I suppose
But, what can I hear
about why am I here?
and not over There
on the Other side
What two-sided relationships
would I need
to become fully here today?
and all seasons yet to arrive
in this sacred home of People
Plants
and PlanetEarth
With gratitude,
I suppose...
but, Why am I here
again?
Cannot mean
only those purposes and means
asso-sedated with my home address
and sometimes needy
sometimes hostile
[downright spankin mean]
neighbors
More creature comforts,
certainly
AND we search for sacred meaning
inside
more intimate
Spiritual enlightenment
perhaps shyer,
timid
early childhood Loser-Trauma
Drama messages
win/lose valuable
Vulnerable communications
with imperfect win/win transparent closets
Hiding chronic stress histories
of anxiety
longing for sacred peace,
or even just a secular piece, you know,
now and again
For chronic stress,
anxiety
Longing for peace
or restored ego-resiience,
or at least a restored recliner
Happiness, and a marketable craft
and EarthMother teaching skills
For relearning happiness
in hope,
joy
in anticipation,
gratitude
for opportunities
to co-invest
in always interesting neighbors
In the Planet Gym
mindbodying
our best health business.
