Free Fall

My arms,
Unbroken lines, splitting the air,
Yet not feeling its struggle,
Against my motion.

I am falling.

My eyes,
Calm and still,
Alleys of Blank Darkness,
Seeking nothing, yet finding it.

I am falling.

My feet,
Parted and independent,
To each its own flight,
Knowing of its own existence, for once.

I am falling.

My form,
Symbol of Rejection - the cross,
Descending parallel to the earth,
Disapproving authority, theirs or mine.

I am falling.

My-self,
These swift seconds,
Of union with the elements,
And of this cherished loneliness.

I am falling...
into my
peace of mind.
