the circle is irrational

[sweetwater]

You can sit
in the irrational posture
in the circle of love

neither left nor right

for personal and privacy
reasons

we do not politicize
our day

in the social response
we might include

to leave our opinions
out of people's way

with your back straight,
breathing correctly,
the rest of it for the perceiving truth

you have understood yourself
the way you think,
the way you live.

You have ended your sorrow, and found enlightenment.

all kinds of twists and turns
with your body fascinate

people to give some
candles in the sun

the brilliant sun is shining
