Backstage

Sometimes
when I encounter
You

I like to
Imagine

how long
it has taken
You
to prepare to
play the
Character
that is
You.

It’s a mystery,
The Mystery.

Sometimes
we get lucky,
by meditating, or
finding the perfect
woodland trail, or
the perfect
coffeeshop,

and we are
allowed
Backstage,

where we see
the costumes
and the sets and
the props
being spun
out of light,

and we feel
the Love
that creates
the Art
that forms
the Stagecraft

that has
produced this
Scene
where I encounter
You.
