“make me glad for every scalding tear” Mary Baker Eddy (my cousin)
make me glad for every scalding tear
today and tomorrow
for
without great joy and appreciation for what is lost or gained
there would be no need of them
were it not for the spirit in every sentient being
there would be no need of them
with every scalding tear there is a story
layering
down a connection
another interaction
sweeping away the past
creating a present
altering the future
without isolation
in isolation
within the sentient being contained
by birth
chained to mortality
ordained by the joining of one egg
my egg
one sperm
my sperm
no one else contains me
yet able to lose oneself in another
to become one
becoming one leads to struggle
triumph
joy
fear
ecstasy
losing ones self
in scalding tears
eternally
