Goddess Pose
"When I squat into Goddess Pose / there is so much to reclaim –/ starting with birth. My birth. Your birth and all / the births before us... " - from Goddess Pose by Corie Feiner
Hello yogis, poets, and seekers of inspiration!
First of all, I am grateful for all of your support - to my free and to my paid subscribers. Your faith in this project and in building a community based on presence, poetry, yoga, and union is just— beautiful.
Have you ever practiced something you have never done before, like an inversion pose, and the presence of someone spotting you can magically create a feeling of confidence and calm? Well, that is what you are to me. When you subscribe and share this publication with others, you are like little angels on my shoulder saying, “Keep going!”
And I hope I can do this for you, too.
Goddess Pose
Today’s poem is about Goddess Pose. This is a big one for me. It is about reclaiming all that was lost for me, and perhaps for many of us– birth, blood, breasts, and the divine within. I include my male readers, too, for we all contain both masculine and feminine energy and a sweet ferocity that is born of both the sun and the moon.
