WHITE TARA
I went to meet that savage creature I have run from,
lifetime after lifetime,
the shape within the shadows,
a creature of smoke and bared fangs.
I went to meet it at last,
and I let it take me in its vast arms,
and I kissed its terrible face.
And I thought I would die;
but I did not die.
I thought I would be swallowed;
but I was not swallowed.
Because that creature I thought would devour me
returned my embrace -
and I looked into eyes that became soft and liquid,
and filled with tears,
the eyes of a lonely child,
my own lost child,
my brother, my sister, my lover, my mother.
And with great tenderness
Fear lay upon my breast, and slept.
And what bound me for so long
flowed out of me,
and my heart expanded,
and I found I could hold the entire world
in my open arms.
I will make my arms a circle
I will make my heart a circle
I will walk all my sorrows, my fears Home.
I will walk circles around them,
until at last I find that bright and spacious center
Come with me. Take my hand.
We will do it together
We will walk Home.
