Simple Simon

Eat when hungry Sleep when sleepy Not simple With thoughts nimble Go where we expand in joy Forsaking egoic ploy Is there an inhibition or limitation To flow thus in unending elation Live simply Act humbly Better a rebel, a nerd Than a blind follower of the herd Can we Do we Are we Free 11-August-2020

Happy you enjoyed! It is actually a poetic interpretation of one of the verses of Vijnana Bhairava Tantra!

Wise words. Brings to mind “freedom from or freedom to”. Great write!

It is true that most of us probably need to question the definition of freedom that has been taught to us our whole lives. I appreciate that sentiment in this poem.
