Inspiration
by Elizabeth Challinor
A faint tingling
Arrives
Out of nowhere
Sending out feelers
For words
The waiting is delicious
Reminds me of choir practice
Shaking up and loosening our bodies together
To tune into the notes
But mind gets clever
Won't surrender
Sends out hard edged words
To stand up on
And feel tall
Soul begins to slip away
Wait!
Please stay!
I just tripped up on ego
Ego frowns
Words come crashing down
Body expands
Space
Light
Freedom
A sudden splash
Of multicoloured paint!
