It’s not a commitment to calm my mind,
to guide my thoughts, to follow my breath,
to pray, to envision my life with God.
It’s only got to be a commitment to the chair.
I get there every day, sit there a proper time,
bring with me my honesty,  my feelings, my fears,
my concerns, my panic or peace.
It only a need to be faithful to the chair
and to trust the other part of the conversation
to take it from there.
