a note for the fire.

Posted on April 6, 2008

it took immense courage to face me and be truly present.

…hello there. the angel from my nightmare…

but you called it faith. not the faith peddled to us in institutions, but the type that makes no sense to the people who don’t matter and which we’re both learning not to let go of.

a life without dependencies, or expectations charged.

…i salute you for your courage in the face of adversarial forces that i represent…

more than that, to be present and to be open, to be dorky, a dickhead and direct.

all i want you to know. is that your faith inspired me on. you’re well aware of my wobbliness. that i suffer foundational problems on bad days. but that i’m working on them. that i am trying my best.

finally.

it could have been such a bad day. it wasn’t. it was a good day. it was the possibility that made it so good.

…it’s been seven hours and fifteen days since you took your love away…i can see whomever i choose…

how we laughed at that line and said ‘screw you’ to each other empathetically.

these events, yes, strange. strange but good.

i wish you ultimate freedom, now that we have it.

namaste. peace.

…god bless you in your travels, in your conquests, and your queries…
