"Get the Picture" #8

BREATH
         (for Trungpa)

Coming around again
like light into morning, breath
gets taken (or it takes you) in
in the one muscular effort
you almost can’t avoid;
no matter how you push it out,
breath comes in--and it goes on
as long as the body has a use for it.
Put the mind on this hinge,
and just what you need
pops into place.
