Unseeking Seeker Poet Dizain

I Murdered My Ego

In the dark of the night, death came calling,
propelling me through a tunnel of light!
My life on review, with myself judging,
comprehending now, through spherical sight,
that on aligning with love, soul shines bright!
‘Shed ego, even if it be murder’,
was counsel I received from the elder.
Back through the tunnel, I did as was told,
vaporising desire in realms upper.
Murder of ego, destiny foretold!

Anne-Lise Andresen February 12, 2021 at 7:05 AM - Maybe we judge ourselves too much, U.S. - Congratulations on your top win in the contest :) - // Anne-Lise :) Unseeking Seeker February 12, 2021 at 8:22 AM Thanks Sunshine! Perhaps not judgment but yes, aligning self with voice of conscience

Linda Alice Fowler February 12, 2021 at 6:55 AM A difficult murder for some. You're captured it in great form. Congratulations on the top win! Linda Unseeking Seeker February 12, 2021 at 8:21 AM Thank you, Linda!

David Kavanagh February 12, 2021 at 6:34 AM I think you killed off your ego a long time ago Seeker, so this was a perfect write for you, and well deserved win, cheers David David Kavanagh February 12, 2021 at 8:34 AM Wow, that’s almost a poem in itself, damn egos impossible to shake off, will try keep at bay, cheers David Unseeking Seeker February 12, 2021 at 6:46 AM Thanks David! The ego pursues us David, even in the void of no-thingness, when we are one with oneness! To be egoless is to merge with God, in an unbroken continuum. Not there yet, by a far cry! :)

Newton Ranaweera February 12, 2021 at 5:34 AM Congratulations, US, on your trophy win!! Unseeking Seeker February 12, 2021 at 6:17 AM Thank you, Newton! Unexpected for me ... to be truthful, when 34/35 entries were received and 2-3 days passed without filling up the last slot, I decided to enter so as to help get the contest closed! I know the feeling, since I’ve floated a few contests myself!

Rama Balasubramanian February 12, 2021 at 4:25 AM Congratulations on your trophy win. Murder of ego. Wow! Good you entered. Kai likes unusual entries in his contests. Enjoy the honour. Take care Rama Unseeking Seeker February 12, 2021 at 5:12 AM Thanks Rama!

Kai Michael Neumann February 12, 2021 at 3:35 AM Congratulations on the Ego-cide and first place in the contest. Kind wishes, Kai Unseeking Seeker February 12, 2021 at 4:20 AM Probably the last entry! I thought it was out of context, as in being unconventional. That’s why I had not entered it. Happy I did and that you enjoyed! Thanks for the placement!
