i am
i am breath

i am breath in simple rhythm
i am the pendulum

i am the pendulum in constant motion
i am energy

i am energy gathering dust
i am form

i am form becoming stable
i am matter

i am matter rooting down to multiply
i am life

i am life in self reflection
i am awareness

i am awareness dissolving
i am spirit

i am here and i am there
i am now and i am then
i am and i am not
i am the universe made flesh
