Can you fall in love and swim in love and wave in love
as if it were a miracle of flowing waters?
This is the Wisdom of the Beginning. Stay in the Beginning.
Become one liquid miracle: close to the Spring, the River, the Lake.
These bodies of water know how the Rhythm
becomes our hearts of flesh and know how drums
become our Summer.
First language. First dance.
African flowing waters: the bodily truth of my very first Exclamation.
