a pact with the void,
a nod to the unanswered questions
we were too afraid to ask.
the mystery of life’s echo fading—
but is all knowledge worth the weight
of its revelation?
to be here at the precipice,
this trembling bridge between worlds.
to be a flawed human, it isn’t nothing.
The beauty of our thousands
of broken pieces glistening
like prisms in the sun.
no longer stand dumb
before Creation,
our eyes half-closed,
our hearts half-sure.
The days of plausible deniability
are dissolving now like the morning mist.
no longer held hostage
by imagination’s fragile weave.
and it beckons,
we step forward,
whole in our breaking,
bathed in the glow
of so many unspoken truths.
Be well and make the most of this day.

Poetry should move us, it should change us, it should glitch our brains, shift our moods to another frequency. Poetry should evoke feelings of melancholy, whimsy, it should remind us what it feels like to be in love, or cause us to think about something in a completely different way. I view poetry, and all art really, as a temporary and fragile bridge between our world and a more pure and refined one. This is a world we could bring into creation if enough of us believed in it. This book is ephemera, destined to end up forgotten, lingering on some dusty shelf or tucked away in a dark attic. Yet the words, they will live on in memory. I hope these words become a part of you, bubble up into your memory when you least expect them to and make you feel a little more alive.

Most of us have experienced a moment of perfect peace at least once in our lives. In these moments we lose ourselves and feel connected to everything. I call these mindful moments. Words can’t describe how complete they make us feel.
These moments are usually fragile, evaporating in seconds. What if there was a way to train your mind to experience more of them? It’s deceptively easy and requires nothing more than a subtle shift in mindset. My new book, Mindful Moments, will teach you to be much more content despite the chaos and imperfect circumstances continuing to unfold around you.
