A Meditation On Creating

Performers call it being

"in the moment"
athletes "the zone"

whatever you call it

it refers to a particular

state of mind

state of being

when all things fall away

and what's left is only

a fluid excellence

a graceful efficiency

in execution of the act

where, regardless of that act

be it mundane task

physical challenge

or artistic expression,

there is a sense of rightness

of harmony

of exceptional but effortless output.

This is a state to be pursued.
