Dreams of Grandeur

Hélène Cixous, from The Laugh of the Medusa

Stepping freshly from the cocoon

I can breathe now where there was no room

Legs weak from being tucked within

Stretch forth longing wondering where I begin

No need to crawl on my soft underside

My frame now transformed through the air I will glide

All that was hidden may now be explored

Sights to behold my vision restored

I will dance upon petals bursting with glory

And tasting their sweetness will now be my story

Hidden in me is the Song of Salvation

Where all that was lost brings forth new revelation

In a kaleidoscope of wonder with faith I now leap

Trusting all that I am in His care He will keep

Pulled from the edges of sleep You draw Me unto yourself

Desire interrupts a slumber where reality and dreams are blurred

Passion entwines the landscapes of Our bodies

Warm contours beckon Our touch

We reach until We find ourselves lost in one another

 Breath upon breath leaves Us as One

Daylight breaks through the veil of our nakedness

We slip undercover and linger in the vast essence of knowing

Intoxicated in the consumption of My Beloved

I dream though I am wide awake

Si alza il vento... bisogna tentare di vivere.

Hayao Miyazaki

“but what if i’m afraid to fall?”, asked little alice leaning against the wall.

the rabbit looked right in her eyes and said, “worry not, little one. the fear is all in your head.

though it’s good to be scared, i will reveal the secret; therefor you know it matters and it’s worth it.

so don’t be frightened to change, my dear.”, he speaks and takes her hand.
