Pan came and whispered quietly in my ear

Life is going to ruin or break you

Piece by piece

If you come alive here

Alive in the sense of just living

Without protections from

Inevitable losses

With no way out

No assurances or guarantees

You will not be

Hurt Injured somehow

But what about

Incarnation?

To be incarnated is to fully experience

The sheer joy or agony and ecstasy

Of living

No longer hiding in bed

Pulling the covers over your head

Create your life

And live it fully

For one day it will be over

And how will you feel then

If you never fully allowed yourself

To taste it

Always kept your arms folded tight

Instead of opening them

To fully embrace it?
