her<\/p>\n\n\n\n
immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Strong arms,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
open smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hair of the raven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sharp eyes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
seeking<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to know, to understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unexpected laughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I focus my attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Deeper we go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Athena,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Goddess of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes, yes,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I see you there,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
hiding<\/p>\n\n\n\n
in your ever<\/p>\n\n\n\n
so sensible shoes,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and corporate <\/p>\n\n\n\n
blouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can\u2019t fool me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m with you\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
on the mountaintop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Icy wind whipping <\/p>\n\n\n\n
your hair,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
clear blue sky,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
with thunder\u2026 how odd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yet not odd at<\/p>\n\n\n\n
all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We talk of strategy,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
courage, skill and<\/p>\n\n\n\n
justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are the Goddess of wisdom,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And then you leave, and<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m left in awe,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
of being truly seen,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
of knowing my place<\/p>\n\n\n\n
in a much more magnificent universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
oh wise one,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
for reminding me again<\/p>\n\n\n\n
that we really<\/p>\n\n\n\n
should take up more space,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to truly flourish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
