The invitation

: It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to
know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting
your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how
old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like
a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure
of being alive.
It doesn't interest me what planets are sqaring your moon,
I want to know if you have touched the center of your own
sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have
become shrivled and closed from fear of further pain!
I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own,
without moving to hide it, or fade it, or fix it.
I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own,
if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstacy fill you
to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us
to be careful, to be realistic to remember the limitations of
being human.
It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling is true.
I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to
yourself; if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not
betray your own soul; if you can be faithless and therefore
trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see beauty even when it's not pretty,
every day, and source your own life from its prescence.
I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine
and still stand on the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of
the full moon, "YES!"
It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much
money you have. I want to know if you can get up, after a
night of grief, and despair, weary and bruised to the bone,
and do what needs to be done to feed the children.
It doesn't interest me who you know or how you came to be
here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire
with me and not shrink back.
It doesn't interest me where, or what or with whom you
have studied. I want to know what sustains you, from the
inside, when all else falls away. I want to know if you
can be alone with yourself, and if you truly like the
company you keep in the empty moments.

I am a dreamstate. A bold, fragile, scared space that is the crystallization of the ethereal form, cloak in nocturnal shades of textures.
