Nothing

Post by mtmynd » December 20th, 2018, 10:17 am

Nothing a little meditation won't cure
as you slide into the ethers
of your own splendid nature
awakening to the inner you
that drives your every emotion
that mends your every hurt
that laughs at your foolishness
that loves life unconditionally

the no thing is without mind
that places emphasis on logic
that tricks your being
that never ceases wanting
that tries to place all life
within its own locked box
whose key is swallowed by ego
in an effort to intellectualize
the meaning of your existence

the enigma of life lies in
the paradigm of filling your being
with all that you desire, want, need
then empty yourself of all that
you have gained leaving you
with the crystallization of soul
magnified thru the cloudless cosmos

No thing... reminds me of slipping into open desert, no thing but you, the truck, scrub/rock & sky. Separation & return..
