Not Christian or Jew or Muslim.
not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or Zen.
Not any religion or cultural system
I am not from the East or the West,
not out of the ocean, nor up from the ground,
not natural or ethereal, not composed of elements at all.
I do not exist, am not an entity in this world
or the next,
did not descend from Adam or Eve
or any origin story.
My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Neither body nor soul.
I belong to the beloved
have seen the worlds as one
and that one call to and know,
First, last, outer, inner, only that
breath breathing human.
