Being Home

Tell yourself the truth first.
Confess yourself with all your mind viruses.
Greet yourself as a dear guest.
Stroke your tousled hair.

Treat yourself to a glass of wine and a piece of bread.
Reconcile. Apply myrrh to your tired feet.
Smile with your whole body.
Say barely audible, with corners of your lips:
"Finally I'm home."

Love yourself.
Like the baby in the first photo.
How old were you on that picture?
Half year?
Love yourself.
Like meadows coved with fog.
Like willows painted in sunrise watercolor.
Like evening River Ros' where otters, catfish and mermaids swim.

Love yourself.
Like the sky you eyed, lying for hours on the fragrant hay.

Dissolve in love, in Eros,
getting rid of sinfulness, like a virus that you caught by accident,
reincarnating here on Earth.
