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
