We are all waiting
Breathing at different times
In different rhythms in different ways
With each inbreath we inhale the world
With each outbreath we create anew
In the pause between are all possibilities
A god turned swan chooses to take flight rather than ravish
An assassin turns the gun on himself and war is diverted
An artist becomes successful and 6 billion lives are spared
And also
A child learns to skip amongst encouraging cheers
A man chooses a caress rather than a blow
A woman drops her clothes to stand revealed
People of other gender other view open their eyes to freedom
What did happen what can happen exists only in that moment
Breathe yourself and consider these things
