Spinning Energy

Sunflower spiral from garden last year.

Spinning Energy

7/14/11

No wonder 'circles' represent wholeness

as container for all things,

where 'spiral' viewed from top

reveals tornado like creative potency

that moves flexibly as needed

delivering change when touching down,

there is no break between

the winds swirling toward future,

they involve everything in path

absorbing person that wants balance,

equanimity, the 'eye within storm',

while caught in paradoxical life

surreally viewed from centered calm,

air thin, feeling infinite pause

of observer who becomes hypnotized

into thinking that nothing moves,

yet recognizes the underlying 'is-ness'

pervading every grain of sand

vibrating at speed to solidify

and be itself, without question

which happens absent any consent,

personified whenever humans get lost

in whirlwind activity containing purpose

moving from 'gut' that knows

how effort, 'what, when, why,'

determines Existence through spinning energy.
