The muses.” said Walker

A poem by Stud Walker:

Make a sanctuary in your mind,

a fortress, a sacred place,

where thinking stops and awareness begins. 

Follow the path of deliberate deep breathing

to a place where your heart is full of easy bliss.

It’s the simplest thing in the world,

and a reconciliation of all discrepancies.

Stay tuned for more poems from local poets!
