Blog No. 224: The Telepathy Tapes Interview, Leza Lowitz Yoga Poem, Philadelphia Playlist

The Telepathy Tapes Follow Up

Uttanasana
Poem by Leza Lowitz

I took my first chair yoga class this week and although it sounds lame, I found it to be a surprisingly good workout without the angst. Our nice teacher Ann included some aromatherapy with an oil called neroli--something she deemed "happy oil" and I loved the scent. Towards the end of the class, she read us the following "Yoga Poem" which hit the spot. In fact, almost like a symchronicity, it related to a series of paintings (see in the paintings of the week section below) that I am working on right now.

UTTANASANA
by Leza Lowitz

Mind, mind
am I doing it right?
can I stay here long enough
or even a second longer
can I eat an ice cream sandwich
after class,
or, but will class ever end?
Mind,
will you ever shut up?
will my legs stop shaking?
will my head reach lower?
Will I
can I
should I
could I
let go of my mind
listen to my breath
let it move through this body
reach out to this moment,
this world,
this life
& let it go?

Bruce Springsteen,
