Found Poem

I’ve been slowly making my way through the book “Held: Blessings for the Depths.” A wonderful small collection of blessings and writings and prompts and art published by enfleshed, a spiritual organization focused on collective liberation. I really get a lot out of keeping them on my radar. The prompt I worked on tonight was to find a word from each of a set of several short pieces of writing on previous pages, and then to create (write) a blessing of one’s own from it.

I found the words as I read through the pages once again, but decided that the collection of words that I found, in the order I found them, with some additional punctuation, was a lovely found poem. So here you go – the title was added after punctuating the poem.

Nameless Altar

Shimmering, nameless, limitless altar.

Energy – supple spirals.

Abiding recurrent folds.

Gossamer winding susurrations.
