The Unveiling<\/strong><\/p>\n

How far is it from
\nWhere You Are Now to
\nWhere You Imagine
\nYou Should Be, to
\nWhere You
\nLong To Be?<\/p>\n

A Lifetime?
\nA thousand Lifetimes?<\/p>\n

Who do You Imagine
\nYou Will Be
\nWhen You Arrive?<\/p>\n

What will be
\ndifferent about You?
\nDo you have a List?<\/p>\n

With deadlines and
\ncheck-boxes and
\nmeasurements?
\nCategories and
\nsubcategories?
\nIndicators of
\nTransformation?<\/p>\n

What if You\u2019re
\ntoo late and
\nyour hair has
\nfaded or
\nfallen out?
\nYour wrinkles
\nand creases have
\nmultiplied, and
\nyour girth gone
\nslack?<\/p>\n

Will you have failed?<\/p>\n

Or have you been
\nmisinformed
\nby the Prophets and
\nPreachers of
\nIf and Maybe,<\/p>\n

when in Truth
\nYou Arrived before
\nYou Ever Left.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve only Ever
\nArrived.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not a Journey.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an Unveiling.<\/p>\n

Someone fitted You
\nwith Blinders
\nat Birth.<\/p>\n

Take them off.
\nYou\u2019re where You
\nLong To Be.<\/p>\n
