LIVE

listen, i may have extremely mixed feelings about manifesting corporeally in this particular human body, but i have to say, i really appreciate the way it tries to turn everything into dancing.

~can’t sit still disease~. pssh. why on god’s green earth would i want to sit still when I could be moving. why would I want to be separate from the current. there is an animating force in me that feels divine, and it generates motion even when I’m sitting still - my mind and body are not separate. every part of me wants to reach out and touch and let itself be moved. every cell in my body remembers the first time I swam in the ocean. my muscles know that the rhythm of pulling a needle through fabric is the same joy as skating over ice - a push, a glide, a tension.

When I give myself up to impulse and weave through the house, my body relaxes into it, my conscious awareness floats along on top like a leaf in a river, and everything is as it should be.

everything is dancing, in both senses. Every action or motion is(a kind of) dancing, and every object is(currently performing the action of) dancing. Giant rocks hurtling through space are dancing. Nothing ever holds still. the music of the spheres is quiet but it’s everywhere.
