Centres: morning poem

About not to get stuck on one thing in ma, is without question:

Your heart to fathom, as one would, from deepest chaos, to celestial bursting,

Me a spinning top, not taking advice anymore –

No understanding, philosophy discarded, only loving:

Your heart

Is my pattern flowing

An example I thought the question my instructor asked, why does there have to be a line

Down the centre of my struggling?

Then if, fighting you the line disappears, reappears again uncompassed, unsurpassed,

Always winning,

What chains me to you – one flowing thru space but loving?

All this patterned time and thought that passes

You’d think I’d forget about you, g,
Tho, without moving thru space,

You’re pillow centred on that hospital bed made –

And then, you encompass,

Actually everywhere

Uncentred, unpatterned, unformed, model of all my portraits, the line drawn –

(What became of me? I’d ask you to shape me)

Depth of feeling in love,

Moves I to my body, even

And touches my soul, which leaps, here to there, back again, pattern in a rhythm of ma…

(I’m fighting the goddess herself)

How catch a meaning in space, but by spinning round your name in question?
