ABOUT THIS PIECE : 
 
Found in Dolores, Colorado
In an antique store
slightly worn + entirely bare
to be Ritualed with
commune + felt together
To ask, To listen, To respond, To repeat
Between silence, breath and sways
Of fixing, adding, articulating
 
As I continued to heal
collecting ritual items
To add the mystic rhythms to
As I ask us both : the purpose
of that very breath together
In moment, space + body
 
For the collection of masks
I found myself wondering:
what masks can we have
not as inauthentic, rather protection
For those that are tender
Sensing - Feeling - Being
More, sometimes referred to as "too"
alive
 
This one : 
kept the messages clear
from the channels I have
to the cosmos
for bigger possibility
variety of perspectives
and wisdom of compassion
with an ability to
simply love
unconditionally
 
my own heart
and others
wholly and all
