Sometimes, when chaos seems to overtake you, you just have to take a moment to recenter yourself. It's hard enough just to get by. Getting ahead requires you to extend yourself. When you do, the result is that sometimes you collapse under the all the things you're trying to juggle. When that happens, you have to find your center, balance yourself, and get back on your feet, so you can return to the world with poise and self-possession.
This piece mimics some of the peculiarities of Gregorian Chant to evoke the idea of finding one's center as a spiritual exercise.
