Return
Living outside the garden
there is shame,
desire, dominance.
The curse of thorns and thistles --
seeking security in relationships and work --
leaves a dry taste of dust.
Ah, but there is a secret!
The cherubim are not posted
to keep you out -- only
to keep I out.
The essential you,
the you under the I,
is protected forever,
undefiled and undefilable.
You can return
for you never left.
