The repetition is good for me
The repetition is good for me, like
a mantra. And the soft cleansing 
strikes remembrance in my heart. 
The dwelling of my heart has been 
besieged, with deliberation.

Break. Respool want, unthreaded 
from need. 

There is care to be taken, and the
motions are for more than 
going through. 

Be in. Be here. The repetition
is good for me.

In truth. In truth! Why say when you can
exclaim. Don’t look, but see. Distinguish
between might and will, the nuance of
conviction. Pile up your doing in view of
expanses once unconquerable. 

Inhale, and again.
