Everything has changed
on the inside.
Though forms remain,
the structure
has been vivified.
What once was thought etheric
is seen to be more solid
(substance now defined by what’s alive)
And what we thought were bars
we now can see
are merely filterings and siftings
of the light.
What we once thought defined us
has shape-shifted with our spirit
And we see it sets no limits,
being infinite.
Everything has changed
on the inside.
Our step is free,
our vistas wide,
Though if we turn around and look again,
we may know
This is how we’ve always been.
