    Sometimes You Hear a Voice

    Blue Flax

    Sometimes you hear a voice
    through the door calling you.
    as fish out of water
    hear the waves,
    or a hunting falcon
    hears the drums
    Come back. Come back.

    This turning toward
    what you deeply love saves you.
    Read the book of your life,
    which has been given you.
    A voice comes to your soul saying,
    Lift your foot. Cross over.

    Move into emptiness
    of question and answer and question.
