Emerge; to exit

Emergence

An exit of slowness, an intentional

transition of change

Emergency

An exit of speed, a disruptive

urgency of change

Which door to go through?

With fluid choice of dreams

Or

With sudden painful speed

Both here to teach

Both challenge, affect

Our comfortability,

Our resilience of change

Exiting what was into what is…

A series of births

until the final emergence

Or

A series of deaths

until the final emergency exit

Both here to teach

How is it that through our exits—

separations of self from what was

We become

Ever more authentic beings,

Ever more intimate with our truth;

Our highest Self
