Empty

I come to thee
Empty, an empty
Vessel, a void
Through which
You move.

The heart and
Mind and body
Aligned and there
For thee to
Move me.

And so I move
With reverence to
Earth, knee down
Face down,
Honouring
Devotional.

The wild mud foot
Dance and swing to
Raise the spirits
Bring me to
Place and place
To me.

The smallest of
Gestures, of presence
Of my body
Given over
To thee.

And so I sit
In the earth
A mouldering foot
My foot, stench
Of decay my
Decay.

And you will
Be born as I
Die.
