The Flow State
My mind wanders and I’m allowing it
Inviting it
Letting the emotions swirl and dance without purpose
Tuning out all that was, all that is, all that will be
Protecting the innermost part of me as I dive into the balance between reality and pain
Time and all its distortions
Have no hold on me
My inner critic silenced as if she had no tongue
This ritual I set bringing my breath in alignment with what is
Engaged, not with the duties and tolls that call me,
But with my distinct need for nothingness
No interruptions
No intrusions
Only the sweet lull of swaying to inaudible music
Fully aware that this is the key
To creativity
To the future
To peace.
