In Bear Moment

Clarity’s a Bear
walking
on dark soil,

paws
clearly
finding their way,

sure footed,
slow,
direct

in spite of
twists and 
dips in the Path.

Now then: you may follow 
the Bear safely
from a distance

using only its tracks
in the Earth,
or

get closer to it
and be less certain
of yourself, 

your safety, 
how far you have to go.
You will be

in Bear moment,
where Clarity has its 
dangers — but

what rewards,
what rewards from 
being there.
