Flow Motion Poetry

I am on my way
to say what I say
when that within me
comes to head
I want you to draw
be filled
to be suffused
quenched

for if this potion
is your healer
then now
is your source
as its purpose is
to draw from me that
which is me
but bear to
you that which is you

together a communion
of souls transmutes
universally
simultaneously

if there be no
communion on this
moment
no sin is found
for the potion
is prescribed for
the need
not for the moment

if the moment were
supreme
there would be no healing
for the vessel would not
be due under the pouring of
your flow 

and if your fount
not issue
there is not waste
for there was not
want

those who needs be
will come
those vessels passing
only in the moment
will go on to their source
not further deprived
but enriched
in capacity

the mind doesn't saturate
from meaning
more like it determines
its own
communion
even as we may be unaware
at the moment
for the moment is slave to the need

so let your fount flow freely
as it swells
so others may drink
of themselves willing vessels
filled in communion
