Creativity : “Harness your Uniqueness”
When searching for your soulmate this is no time to “blend with the crowd.” You need to discover exactly who you are so you can seek your complementary and missing elements. If you are uncertain or mistaken about your essential self, you won’t even recognize The One. You will be guaranteed to choose a partner based on false considerations of status or appearance. This requires you stop hiding your true self and allow it to emerge. Easier said than done! Turns out we all have been babying the shyly unique aspects of ourselves that don’t win instant recognition from the crowd. Well, we are going to have to experiment with taking Baby out for daily strolls and develop a bit of muscle. Don’t worry if the “likes” fall away – you are not trying to appeal to everyone. The creativity card means you will need to become imaginative in how you present yourself. You want someone accepting? Be accepting. You want someone brave? Be brave. You want someone who looks deeper? Look deeper.
Fire In the Dust
In photographs
The ladies scream or laugh
It’s hard to tell
Heads back they bare their
Grief or joy or
Agonized relief
It’s hard to tell.
All that remains of them
Tattered icons growing ever dim.
The fountains of our fear
Leap high at first, like dancers
Frozen at first burst
Of freedom
Paralyzed abreast
The arc
We cannot see
What tortuous sign these fossils
Meant to be.
In that first winter
We thought the earth was dead
Statues mated
Trees erupted dragonflies
The angry lonely
Sang and cried.
Somewhere some fetus twists and jerks
Convergence of dynastic quirks
So drop the toxic cloak of bitter spite that
Melts the flesh and terrorizes night –
Waiting out a cycle’s sum
Spinning down to kingdom come.
For nothing vain, came nothing plain
This world was born
To live again.
