Allow

feb 2025 · short

What if you allowed yourself?

What if you just did it

The thing you shouldn’t do

Instead of the internal battle

You surrender

I heard a story of a horse that walked backwards

The owner would kick in his heels

Frustrated and off balance

But it only made the horse ride faster

Backwards and backwards

So a horse whisperer was called in

Who approached calmly and kindly

And gently straddled in

The horse set off at speed

Backwards and backwards

But the whisperer didn’t mind

He didn’t resist

He just looked over his shoulder

And went with him

And after a little while

The horse slowed down

Paused

And started riding fowards

Faster and faster

What if you went where you shouldn’t go

And through non-resistance

End up where you wanted to

Between the veil I watch your eyes and wonder To the other side

Bruised in sorrow Desert island treasures Unmapped by the heart

Hallway transitions Through unexpected doorways Into new spaces
