Job Description

What’s required of us

is not the yoke

of dutiful responsibility —

It’s the electric catching,

from fingertips and all awakened skin,

from eye-lights and light answers from within

of all the joy that fills this air, this place

Our light is required —

all of it —

in each dimension of our being,

all our hearing, all our seeing,

all we rise to meet,

all we live to prove,

all that comes to presence from our love.
