Not sure I would have caught the Muse’s easter egg if I was looking instead of being looked, so I’ll start with gratitude.
Gratitude for the invite to the job fair; gratitude for the small silent voice within that pushed me out the door on a rainy Tuesday to hit it in the first place; and gratitude for the booth that hipchecked me into the accidental grace I always long for but can never force.
Everbody has their own cadence in striding the warren of hiring company’s stalls, of course, and normally mine is focussed on focus - culling and approaching my marks with stride and purpose. This fair, though, hit different. I didn’t need what was being offered; volition pulled instead of pushed; and there, at stall 17, the transactional dissolved.
It wasn’t their HR rep, or the free swag inviting people to parlay, it was HOW their area was setup. The table runner, its surface and the brochure rack were tiered just so that I was golden-ratioed. The Muse winked, the pattern was cortexed, and for a moment there were no moments or boudaries, just spirit’s algebra

Here minus there
plus
Now minus then

This:
Tables and chairs and chatter and recruitment funnels
Eddied in Van Gogh’s blues and golds
As the room washed and mandala-ed itself around a podium-ed bindu
And the world’s most complete CV sparkled like a cracked diamond
Language and logic and god are broken in this herenow
But Poetry and God abide,
Ladling words from the Present to the papyrus,
To the CV without start or finish;
To God’s Resume:
Infinite spiritual origami ~
Document without size
Folding over and subsuming itself in perfect imperfection
No work chronology or summary of experience
Just everything connected to Everything
Without start stop or borders
~
Not sure I would have cracked the Muse’s easter egg if I was looking instead of being looked, so I’ll end with gratitude:
Gratitude for seeing that without boundaries there is no distance between God’s resume and mine;
That I’ve always only ever been her employee
And in the herenow We only have one job responsibllity ~
Everything
