Meditate

Wait. I hesitate, 
I can vacillate, translate, inflate, 
celebrate, masticate, conjugate… 
But meditate? 
When I wake my mind skates 
straight to figure eights. I cannot sate 
the breakneck gait. 
Meditate? 
It’s some mistake. 
Wait. Intake breath, deflate. 
Thoughts abate, calm, sedate. 
God awaits. 
Relate.
