Play Possum

Play possum, feeding not dark fears
As they spiral inwards 
Choose bliss instead, that love endears 
Propelling us upwards 

Transcend fear and desire
For love and light, aspire
Pure innocence afire

We’re awesome
Play possum

Sam Kauffman Date: 11/4/2021 11:22:00 AM What a singularly unique image of "playing possum" to transcend negative energy Seeker. Every action in your Quietus stems from choice and taking responsibility for "bliss" and enduring love. Enjoyed this very much. Congratulations and blessings of bliss to you!

Caren Krutsinger Date: 10/23/2021 2:00:00 AM It is sad that people do not realize you can "choose bliss" so this meant everything "Choose bliss instead, that love endears " Wow!
