Patreon Poem/Prayer/Song 86: For Emptiness

If you want to submit a request for a prayer, poem, or song to be written to you privately or to be posted on this blog or my Patreon for a God, Ancestor, or spirit, sign up for the Ansuz and above level here on my Patreon.

This request was made by Cunian for Sitting with Emptiness.

Prayer for sitting with emptiness. It’s that period at the bottom of breathing, between one breath and the next and you have that trust exercise moment where you have to believe you won’t actually keel over if you aren’t constantly grasping for more air. Sort of a yoga position thing where you eventually realize that hard pose you hated is actually a resting pose. I am having a hard time with words so hopefully this resonates enough.

Deep in the well of breath

Stillness lies

Between

The rush of fear

Grips hold

Paralyzes

Before Fire and Ice

Ginnungagap waits

Potential

Aching joints, muscles, bones release

Taking rest

Soothing

The nothing-all liminality rests

Between moments

Powerful

Nothing but the now

Immanent transcendent

Becomes

Children of the Ginnungagap

Learning again

Breathe

Draw Me in

Your lungs, your diaphram expand

Let Me out, slowly

Bring Me in

Deep as you can

Then out, just as swift

Gather Me in

Hold me there

Release, and I course through you

Feel the pounding of your veins

Hear the rush of inner wind

Taste the copper of blood

Smell the ozone around you

See the breathing Worlds

I breathe and burn in you

Sing with me

There are no wrong notes

I swell and move through you

Howl with me

Let your kýn hear

I am the first and last breath

Breathe with me

I will journey with you into Silence
