I’m no accident
No hand of luck
Or result of consequence
Led me here
I’m claiming one half and the other
I’m claiming everything
I AM more powerful than I believed
I learn
And I love
Learning to love painlessly
And when I don’t
I claim understanding
Because I can only know
To know what I know
And so to understand ourselves
Is as important as breath drunk deeply
As without
We slice and dice our life
Disconnecting from the totality of our brilliance
The phenomenal powers of the universe
The incomparable beauty
Lives within us
Generating electricity
And un-orchestrated rhythms
Intricate happenings
And microscopic life
Happening not to us
But in us
All wonders we observe above
To understand why and where and how
Has evolved so precisely within
So I’m claiming my own excellence
I’m no accident
And neither are you
We’re evolving perfectly
As life does
And we belong.
