Flame of Desire

An interesting question has arisen
About our desire to end the fire of desire
Signalling a doer needing to do as bidden 
Attempting to extinguish flames ego does sire

We may see clearly that this is not the way
For as long as a separate identity is manifest
Our consciousness will continue to sway
In a web of illusion ego continues to resurrect

The trick then is to simply switch frequency
Choosing to be ever present at the Love vibration 
Exiting stagnation rooted in patterns of delinquency 
Celebrating all unfoldings here & now in elation

What has happened thus is this: we vaporise
Relegating role of mind body to an interface
There then being no one left to judge or size
We be to become bliss itself by divine grace

Your cadence, meter is gret! Keeps the eye pulled along into your verse. Nicely done!
