Stupor

Recognising our stupor
in constant renewal within
holding us in hypnotic trance
as each thought train begins

Dream images self conjured
seemingly unwilled
how we respond therein
signals if attention be distilled

Likewise for the waking state
opting for a stillness continuum 
yet when immersed in turbidity
begins to sway the pendulum 

Trapped thus within the matrix
of illusions begetting delusion
prayerful resolve to stand erect
becomes an unending meditation
