I have been playing around with my poi again since I have
been single. It’s amazing how much of yourself you lose in another person. I
used to play poi so much and I was starting to get paid work for it and then
well, I don’t really know what happened.
Relationships take up so much of your
time that you easily forget to give back to yourself. You forget what makes you happy. So much of your energy is focused on your
partner that you start to neglect yourself and your own needs.

Anyway I have been practicing my poi like a BAWS again here
in coffee bay. Whenever I have some spare time I pick em up and head for a
spinning session. I would like to become very good at it I want people to be
amazed when they see me spinning fire for them. I want to let them see what an
exciting art form it is and I would like them to see how much time I have put
into it.
I want my fire poi to flow seamlessly through the air and around my
body feeling the heat of the flames kissing my skin and singeing my hairs.
It excites me just typing about it J
I can smell the paraffin and
hear the whooshing sound it makes as it passes close by your ears. There is no
feeling like it and I would never be able to describe it to anyone. Only
actually playing with fire will you understand the awesomeness of it.
Poi keeps me sane when I am feeling down. I will focus that
energy into poi and improving my talents as a poi dancer.
Experience all things with
the enthusiasm of a child, as if you were seeing it for the first time. This is the zen mind always new, always aware, always that of a beginner
