NIGREDO / traverse

Choosing this soap
is accepting to move through a dark passage,
where what weighs in the shadows
begins to reveal itself.

Charcoal purifies deeply.
Shungite absorbs and grounds.
Cedar protects and recenters.

The familiar landmarks blur.
Identification with the outer world begins to crack.
Something within
descends into a nameless chaos.

The sense of reality wavers.
Emotions become unsettling.
Right action may disappear.

Within this mental fog,
a layer of my persona
witnesses its own transmutation.

Then another truth emerges.
More burning.
More unsettling.
More alive.

Beyond blackness and light,
new question*answers await.
