Damselfly Star Family Harbin Hot Springs, California 2010
I balance my naked body On the ledge bench within the hot spring Sunk down into meditation When I notice a damselfly Floating before me
I reach my fingertips towards her Pulling her out of water Leave her to dry on the white ledge Behind me
“Hi love,” she says I turn my body around so my breasts Rest against the white wall And I look into her eyes Deciding to engage in Conversation
I feel myself fall into her eyes Her lips move As she speaks to me within my head Endless downloads come through Some stories Some giggles
She has a diamond pattern on her wings One darker gray diamond on each wing Other patterns emerge as she dries
Black flies keep falling into the water Floating past me as they struggle for life I pull out each one Drop onto the white surface Until the area is littered with half-dead bodies
“There are armies of beings protecting you now,” shares damselfly I still struggle deeply with that Yet I do feel protected and loved I look out at the half-dead flies And wonder how many of us are giving our lives To bring on the awakening
I decide to move damselfly onto elder leaves Of the pink-belled plant Who had taught me weeks back
I continue my chat with damselfly An elder man approaches me with a small Pocket magnifier I smile I don’t feel I need magnification When I am inside the damselfly Or rather When she is inside my head and soul
“You must be a scientist,” the elder man says to me I smile “I’m a freshwater ecologist.” I love how I still can claim Endless titles
I read the man as soul fam “I’m also speaking with her,” I share I see no reason to hide these gifts of mine I feel everyone can chat with damselflies Perhaps I simply need to be one of many To come public with the gift
The elder smiles Turns out he has studied the possibility Of what I do For many decades He recommends books He shares stories
“You know you can help so many people You’re intelligent and beautiful and Connected to worlds that others dream about.” I smile
I am helping people Simply by showing that anything is possible
Anything is possible Anything is possible Anything.
