Eye and Circle Shapes

Assignment Four in my Shape Poetry Class.

And so you catch 
my eye, you vixen you,

and to be honest I do not know
why because your beauty is not so very  
apparent to the naked eye. Some would say that 
you are a bit rough around the edges, maybe unpolished is
a nicer way of putting it? But no matter for I can
see a glimpse of something, in your eyes,
something that brings me closer, with
a longing to know you better, 

for the eyes do have it.

Sit in a circle 

holding hands, breathing. 

The hot rocks bring steam to the 

lodge and all is well, all is well, as we 

sweat together in perfect harmony, all as one.

Someone starts to chant which rises, with the heat

filling the lodge with our voices and our strength as

we cleanse our bodies, cleanse our minds,  most 

of all, we cleanse our souls. I feel so close to all

my brothers now. Even the ones who I do 

not know, even the ones who I do 

not like. For today, we are 

one as we sweat and

 sit in a circle.

Sharing experiences always brings us closer to one another . Community is the key to civilization

I love the sweat lodge, because of how it helps me in my spirituality but I also love the feeling of community and sharing, you are right.
