The Warrior’s Edge
The Warrior’s Edge
The Kriya beginning
A rhythmic movement
Automatically kicking in
My inner fire igniting
The pilot light being lit
Breath work
Using both nostrils
Pumping my heart
Into fluid action
Specific motions
Opening up the roots
Anticipating what
Is to come
Time flows
My voice inflamed
Drawn to the surface
Warming up
On a cold Fall night
Stepping into
A warrior’s pose
One Kriya
Two Kriya
Three Kriya deep
Words flying
And holding
In the air
Out of Cat’s
Strong voice
The sacred feminine
Is smooth
Fluid motion
The sacred masculine
Movement with
Specific purpose
Own your movement
Allow your voice
To be heard
Letting go
My voice echoing
Off the floor
Bouncing from
The walls
Sounding like thunder
Shaking the walls
Fully capturing
And allowing
The energy
Of this moment
To ignite
The fire within
Becoming the lion
Feeling its breath
Burn through
My lungs
My tongue extended
As the rhythmic sound
Of my inner voice
Engages the roar
Of 1000 sparks
Tears welling up
Slowly flowing
As I feel
The inner Guide
Pouring warmth
Through all
Of my being
Liquid love
Seeping into
All of the
Exposed and
Hidden gaps within
A shift
Moving in
The form
Of a dance
Moving back
From the warrior’s edge
The rhythmic touch
Of the didgeridoo
Piercing my voice
Dancing movement
Flowing in
The music
Causing my
Hands and hips
To engage
Letting go
Eyes no longer
Fiercely open
Dancing with
My Venus moon
Allowing the flow
Of her
Magnificent energy
To carry me
Back into
The rhythm
Of the Yin
Sitting on
My thick blue mat
Fully understanding
The magnitude
Of the experience
I had just experienced
Like the movement
Of the Kriya
My present
My future
Exposed and engaged
