Notes About The Poem

Adrift In My Halo

Ditch greed, self-satisfaction, and selfishness. Break free from the high-stress atmosphere. I aim to overwhelm myself with full awareness. wasting my breath by uttering worthless fear. Break free from the high-stress atmosphere. Cast wayward in the raging wind and thick fog. wasting my breath by uttering worthless fear. Grief breeds faint hope as it dilutes grim slog. Cast wayward in the raging wind and thick fog. This is a purification treatment for myself. Grief breeds faint hope as it dilutes grim slog. Flown over streams, lakes, and the house shelf This is a purification treatment for myself. Swimming in my huge ocean invites me back. Flown over streams, lakes, and the house shelf And moon-glazed seas send me to sleep track. Swimming in my huge ocean invites me back. I aim to overwhelm myself with full awareness. And moon-glazed seas send me to sleep track Ditch greed, self-satisfaction, and selfishness.
