The poet doesn’t invent. He listens.

“I’m okay with dissatisfaction, because I look on it as a sign that I’m done with something: It’s time to move on. Life is movement, you know? There is no arriving at a place or a time and then you’re done, unless you’re dead or really stupid or lazy. You keep moving. I’m gonna keep moving. I have things to do. I can only be satisfied with something for the short time that I acknowledge that I did my best and it gave me some knowledge or perspective or pleasure or warning. And then I’m done. I keep moving.”
— Ruth Gordon

We are in the midst of rebirth to a new world, where the previously repressed and ridiculed parts of ourselves are now our magic Compass of She Who Knows.
“As you move through these changing times… be easy on yourself and be easy on one another. You are at the beginning of something new. You are learning a new way of being. You will find that you are working less in the yang modes that you are used to.
Call on it. Call it up. Invite your ancestors in. As the yang based habits and the decaying institutions on our planet begin to crumble, look up. A breeze is stirring. Feel the sun on your wings.”
