I sat on the ledge near his muzzle as he napped.
He extended his front hoof to me.
Again,
Again.
Come with me.
Again.
Yes, in my heart.
I relaxed into the dimension he visits often, beyond separation.
No intellect. Only knowing.
I observed the stories receding, my name dissolving.
My body released a hundred layers of holding.
My spine softened into love.
Home.
