Try this out, just for a moment –
being satisfied with what you are –
not in contrast to any others,
not in reference to a former self

Inhabit this – and not as an exception –
Have reference only to your present self –
What you are is just what feeds this moment
with the delight that glints through all its folds

This is enough! In fact, it’s overflowing –
Let its lightness billow through your form,
let it lift you up and take you flying –
you can come back down
any time you want.
