a backward prayer

(or, an upside down prayer- to exercise your breathing diaphragm- or, a semi-pseudo-semi mystical poem etc)






wish you if-

stretch your eyes and open can you


you around the people

room into a back awareness, your bringing gently into moments few

meeting our experience. need you what experience?

now and here present be.


have you effort for yourself? congratulate and here be. your yourself within affirm.

you bring energy and fill with breath. allow the breath as your are now.

pause longer. another for breath should be your focus.

judge your release and compassion. with feelings do acknowledge your heart. be gentle with emotions if you are strong.

pause and breathe release. discomfit all tension. allow the body a place in breath. focus and befriend sensation. let the body think what may.

pause attention. bring the sky in the clouds like floating thoughts. let just be. wander your mind.

attend with judgment. mind your cross. face your muscle, drop your jaw, unclench your shoulder. slowly breathe to continue you as now.

breathe your sound. out and in passes it as air cool of sense.

Itself breathing, know your changing body. breathe your change, breathe your watching.

have you nothing else? go nowhere. nothing is there.

out and in goes it as breathing. follow, allow your attention now.

exhale each with falling. Inhale with each expanding belly. a still chest on your hand.

breath of falling, rising, falling chest on belly. seat and floor support your body’s weighty feel.

Across the wall a spot focuses your closed eyes. the floor is flat on your feet. remove want. everything falls off your lap.

exercise relaxation. the hard confusion, the stone in the desert.
