Transcript of POETRY OF THE HEART: Mitch Ditkoff

Poetry of

The Heart

Excerpts from

Full Moon at Sunrise

and beyond

Mitch Ditkoff

I had 100% control of my mind

for a moment or two –

the work of a thousand lifetimes

hiding in a dark forest.

Then I let go.

It had nothing to do with

enlightenment,

my sudden release.

No.

It was more like the dropping

of a heavy bag of rocks.

The splash it made

in the still waters below

cooled a few small children.

They are still laughing.

- Mitch Ditkoff
