without defenses
only tenderness
wonder
facing the opposite direction
we have for so long held
that of defense
and difference
and knowing the constant need and effort
for protection
in every moment
even while sleeping at night
now
the depth of
tenderness
approaches
us
expands and opens
and keeps opening
and opening
and
opening
what?
is
this?
not the small word
from my past
from my dictionary
no relation to
things
of this world
the unknowing
the wholly surrendered
frame
paradigm
all meaning
is
met
fully met
with a surprise
and wonder
pockets keep opening
and exclaimed at silently
what is this place?
this sparkling space
where attack
has never lived
at all?
tenderness is
so very
very
virgin
