Pairing Down

by Jessica George

Rest

The danger is lessened

Rest

We are together

Rest

All sharps

This is our time

The Rest Is Love

no words Written

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

Remembering bodies deserve

The return of gentle touch

Mine for yours

Yours for mine

Monkeys, ravens, panthers, parrots, flowers, columns,

umbilical cords, sharks, crocodiles, hearts and spines

Especially spines know

To return to standing

In control of weight and emotions

There are no shortcuts to beauty and time

That’s the magic

You have to go through it.

Linger Here

In companionship and repose –

Until I need you

To work for us

In companionship and repose

Your beauty is a function that reaches unseen depths

Working for us

Manually unearth what is laid to rest

Your beauty is a function that reaches the unknown

Dig in, turn to go

Manually unearth what is laid to rest

Your beauty is a function that reaches the unknown

Dig in, turn to go

Manually unearth what’s laid to rest quickly

Room is made, breath gained

Dig in, turn to go

Further

Room is made, breath gained, quickens

Further companionship

returns to repose
