Practicing Mindful Breathing

 

We breathe mindfully but with our lungs

This necessity of life has become a trend

Which we study in meditative books

As if our alveoli were rosary beads

 

Even our watches want to instruct us

In the deep mysteries of inhalations

And like masters of postulants and novices

Ring us awake for our morning breaths

 

“Focus on your breathing” – how very odd

If we should respirate to the glory of God
