Expansion III

The river is a constant. It supports and sustains. It receives all the prayers and meditations of my heart...

I sit in meditation against the lone bench by the river launch and expand my back body and receive its support...

Expansion

the side body
rises--
to meet the kiss
of the inner body
expanding brightly

breath sent
to the back body
opens--
and inflates kidneys,
and for the first time
I understand
what it means
to express the pose
and the practice
from the inside
