Journal - Today

by Glenn Currier

Between these lines

in the sea of my doing

I anchor in you.

We write our relationship

I plumb the unknown of me

and explore the width of my mind.

Through this horizontal landscape

on the reins of language
my pen tills my soil
searching for you

making holy these moments.

Here I can spout and shout

anything unacceptable

to the rules – mine or their's.

I scrape the brittle bone

of my hurt
remember the salutations

of yesterday.

I lay open my innards

without fear of infection
I feel the pain
that has incubated there
in my years of resistance
and the decades of my battle
with the truth I feared as a predator.

Instead I found gossamer sparrows

in the moments
I left time
and found my soul

in Now.
