The Jackhammers of Fear

Attracting that which sets us free

The winds carry those with feathers
Those without get battered
The waters carry those with abandon
Those without clutch onto trees

Hurricanes, floods, and fires
are disasters to those
who hold on
to those who do not let go

Those who do let go
are those carried away
and taken on a journey
and whose lives are changed

What is a disaster
but the pushing through
of the stiff containment
of our solidified hiding place?

Being thrust down a waterfall
Being blown through the sky
Being uprooted from the cement
our feet are rooted in

Nature tries to move us
and we resist with all our might
even though we know
that movement keeps us alive

Thank goodness for nature
it will guide us home
it will show us the home
that hides in our heart
