This poem is about the first lapses before the flow of mental stillness from meditation.

I wrote the first three stanzas separate to the rest. I tried to structure them like heartbeats, while describing figuratively the breathing routine.
After that I began some meditation to inspire me. Pulling myself from it as soon as the words began to flow, I tried writing about it as best I could. But, like water through fishnets, most of the words eluded me, and this was what I came up with. I'm not particularly satisfied with it. I just might repeat the ritual and see if anything new can be edited into it.
As always, comments are greatly appreciated!
