The Vaporised Self

Narrow mind, struggling to join all the dots Thus missing out on the larger picture Spiralling about in ego thought slots Mind body, feeble soul caricature An instrument to navigate earth life Why then allow, it to be our teacher Immersed here, in world of struggle and strife We find ourselves swamped in limitation Feeling each pain, cutting heart with a knife Freedom in this simple recognition That we are not limited mind body This simple truth, known in meditation Negating thus, feral thought forms shoddy We bring head and heart into alignment Feeling bliss throb within, slow and steady Seek not, oh hermit, any attainment Vaporise ego; rest in contentment 30-January-2021 (syllabic Terza Rima)
