BONE AND FLESH
Exoskeletons
Have held me
Not my own.
Not of me.
Hers.
His.
My primordial soup
In their evolved form.
In their evolved form.
But I am gathering.
Coming together.
Coming together.
At the center of me.
I am.
A backbone.
My backbone.
My backbone.
Muscle
To move.
Skeleton
To stand.
Watch me fall
Watch me bleed
Watch me rise
Watch me dance.
Watch me fall
Watch me bleed
Watch me rise
Watch me dance.
Bone of my bone
Flesh of my flesh.
My bone.
My flesh.
My blood.
My dance.
My dance.

This week I am speaking out.
Yes to this. No to that.
I matter. I am matter. I am taking form. My form.
The cries of what is dying in and around me are quieting. I can hear the vibration of my becoming. I am just learning how to listen to the cord developing in me
- this stringed instrument of me.
My psychic attention - the heat - for me is now felt in structure of lines. It makes sense that lines and order would emerge as I feel the energy of crisis in me settling. Structure out of chaos.
Grids of tiled bathroom walls. Lines in the road, of a railing. I see them everywhere...in patterns in rugs, in the grate on the street, on the shadows on the wall from sunlight on a bookcase.
I see them in my inner-world. Flashes of the work of Barnett Newman's zip paintings and Agnes Martin's grids are with me.
I see them when I am not looking.

Barnett Newman
The chaos of dissolution, of swimming in the dead sea, has become the soup of evolution....of transformation....
How amazing to be expereincing the evolution in my life in images that mirror the evolution of life....and that mirror becoming...

Oh, how I love this...
I just searched when the spine and spinal cord begin development in an embryo - the answer is (Stage 10) Week Four.
My awareness of spine is this past week,
week four of this Sacred Space. This Communitas.
This womb of self discovery.
This class.
