However you're holding

However you’re holding,

whatever that is . . .

as it appears.

Upon further introspection

and some mindful measures

of self in reflection . . .

Your presence applies.

Your self-conscious records.

The story has copy in your mind.

Positions form in defense.

Stress has its identity withheld.

Your being is compressed

and also seductively compelled.

Experience, as of itself,

has hidden labors.

The journey, as it is held,

has life of its own.

And we all share

interactively, in that . . .

by the rules that we abide,

by the senses we invest,

indirectly

by the account we give.

However you’re holding,

whatever that is . . .

as it appears.

Will reveal more about you,

from the carriage you give,

the value you assign.

and the essential source of you

that gives off the subtlety

of your spirit’s presence

in every manifest and way.

For however you’re holding,

whatever that is . . .

as it appears,

celebrates the spirit of you . . .
