in defenselessness
is Heaven
i spread my arms
hands cupped
ready to receive
i open wide the cupboard doors of my chest
in defenselessness
in quiet mind
all things seen and heard
all words, all thoughts
are trans-formed
what were once
sharp pointed darts
speedily piercing the target
in my cupboard
are now
soft kisses
warmly received
landing so gently
and lovingly
and remaining forever
in this quiet space
i listen for the gold
in every word
honesty gives me everything
i want
i would not defend against it
but welcome it
with relief
