The focus of my former life
is now a broken lens –
I can’t make sense of
what I used to strive for

I can’t make sense
of being right, of a life
comprised of choices  –
best things, best ways, best buys,
best explanations

Now, what makes more sense to me
is simple noticing  –
where I am, what is unfolding,
what signs of omnipresent Love
are here for me to see,
what is the step I’m called to take right now,
how can I give, right now,
what’s being asked of me.
