Poem Title:
Poem
. Imagine A thread Imagine Beads on them Imagine Beads in sequence Imagine Beads as tiny vessels As pots. Pots Looking upwards In Pots In them There is space The Space Voids To be filled There are Wants and Needs. Containers On thread They await The Wants and Desires to be fulfilled To Be Full. Complete To be filled with Life’s Earthly Experiences Fulfillments Contentment It is A long bucket list Gradually the pots fill To the brim. Overflows Can not contain anymore Thread feels stretched Thread squeaks At a moment The pot inverts Turns upside down It drains out All those precious things All contained ALL. Is emptied Shock Hurt PAIN Empty Pots As Beads Are now inverted Not to receive Anymore The binding threads lighter Unburdened free light in Joy Free From Desires is Delight The vessels will not Contain Thoughts flow over ‘em Stick no more No more weight on The Connecting Thread It was Time-Wait Experience in Unburdening Of Weight
