Now Is The Time
There I was in a rumpled sleep
In days of avoidance
In nights of glaze
All I could see were the tops of my shoes
If I looked up
If I looked out
Blessings and gifts
Dangerous risks
And the wisdom of witches
Now is the time
To listen
To listen
To listen
Now is the time to reach inside
To cut the barbs
To let my soul rise
To be at peace with knowing nothing
To recognize pettiness and respect import
To accept my demons and give them no license
No quarter
Now is the time to let her lead
Allow myself to follow
To let the wind blow
To let the world flow
Now is the time.
