Pranayama

Let the breath in.

Deepen it now -

for all of our lives

depend on it.

Why this holding back

from everything,

even this thread

that weaves

your life

a whole,

the breath?

We are not alone.

We breathe together,

you and I,

you and every other,

them,

this universe

and all

that it contains.

The exhale

of the stars

is the inhale

of the future.

Breathe with me,

a new race.
