Same Way

You can’t see your source,

the same way

you can’t see yourself —

it comes up from within,

it faces the same way you do —

it is your impulse, your inspiration,

nothing you can separate

in any observation

from what you are

Certain things you can see

in reflection,

but then you and your source

are both looking at the same image.

The point isn’t to try

to see it face to face,

the point is how you dance with it inside.
