HEART, WITH FEET, RUNNING

 
We have gnawed through
      these coarse ropes
            fallen at our feet
      who leap in joy
            to run us away
      to the freedom
            which we have always
                  held in our hearts
We have no thought
      for that left behind
            and allowed to fade
      we have learned the wiles
            of our attachments
      beating forward without
            that which no longer
                  serves our growth
We have no needs
      that cannot be met
            thru love and vision
      carrying almost nothing
            our path is magic
      for all that leads us
            thru these feet running
                  comes easily thru
                          our heart
- Paul Malécot
