The Sweet Spot

(Antique central Asian rug)

The Sweet Spot

Remarkably, right on the cusp
Between the tangible and intangible
Sit the old tribal weavings
Of the near to far East.

I’m sure to many
Both there and here
This subtle distinction of delicate balance
Goes right over their heads.

But to others,
Surely more than just a few,
It goes right to the heart
Which is of course the place we all long to be.

It’s such a fine line to find
Between this and that
The known and the mysterious
And yet…

What else is there worth finding
Where else would you rather be
Than at the sweet spot
Where in and out are one.

(5/24/24)
