(How My Body Taught Me to Stay Long Enough to Know)

Certainty was currency
a gateway to higher Knowing
and Clarity was expected
fast, confident, neatly justified
and yet the truth is
I could rarely find Her
not in a way that felt true
I didn’t know, then
that I was trying to name Clarity
from a body that had never been allowed
to stay with Uncertainty
lifelong curiosities
Follow
Followed
Following
an opening of experience
a slow, whole-body widening
that let Complexity live
without demanding resolution
not toward an answer
but toward space
Time
a quiet depth
a tending to evergreen
a spreading intelligence that
let Doubt live
without collapse
in shape and form and wisdom
I remember the fog
surrounding, cycling
surging and quiet
lurking shadows at the edge
widening cracks
light weaving
dancing through dimness
Time folding
folding
soft edges
folding again
an endlessness
ambiguous
amorphous
soft
alive
maybe you know this place
where Knowing and Unknowing
exist together
side by side
sometimes in Rhythm
sometimes out of step
no ground beneath
insides matching outsides
Presence uninterrupted
ageless
limitless
met far beyond the
edgeless field, simply to be
unknowing and free
no tidy answers
no clear paths
just a Rhythm
moving
pulsing
unexpected
playful
daring
alive
watching the blueprints
of old patterning
surface
as echo
as trace
Life, Herself
unfolding
Leading
Time stretched wide
we shared lungs
a preserving
of Time together
remembering Time together
honouring Time together
how Togetherness inhabited Life
and we inhabited Togetherness
these days
Clarity moves differently
not all at once
She senses
in the Rhythm of staying
in the body’s quiet trust
that something will take form
when it’s ready
sometimes
Clarity is the shift
in how the body rests
against what once felt unbearable
