In an instant,
our stories collapse
into a field
of infinite possibility,
and all is still.

We land at last
in our own skin
and there is nothing wrong
with these tender, porous,
earthy creatures.

Stunned by the immensity
of lifelong misperception,
we are finally relieved of
all that kept us apart.

Here we find
what it means
to be truly in awe,
fully alive in the heart
of an open moment.

We see each other
as if for the first time,
no gap between us,
no thought believed.

Remind me,
brothers and sisters,
when I fall asleep again,
imagining I know
who you are,
or what is possible for us.

Remind me to throw away
every one of those tired filters
and step across the bridge again.
