Unburdening of Weight

.
Imagine   A thread
Imagine   Beads on them
Imagine   Beads in sequence
Imagine   Beads as tiny vessels
  As pots.  Pots Looking upwards 
    In Pots  In them There is space
           The Space
                Voids
             To be filled
         There are Wants 
   and Needs.    Containers
                               On thread
   They await         
   The Wants 
     and Desires
        to be fulfilled
          To Be Full. Complete

          To be filled with  Life’s
    Earthly Experiences
  Fulfillments Contentment
It is A long bucket list
Gradually the pots fill
 To the brim. Overflows
    Can not contain anymore
       Thread feels stretched
                Thread squeaks
                       At a moment
                     The pot inverts
              Turns upside down It drains out
    All those precious things All contained
                                    ALL.        Is emptied
                                    Shock
                                Hurt
                                    PAIN
                                     
                                     Empty

                                    Pots

                                     As 
                                         Beads
                           Are now  inverted
                        Not to receive Anymore
                      The binding threads lighter 
                     Unburdened free light in Joy
                     Free From Desires is Delight
                      The vessels will not Contain 
                          Thoughts flow over ‘em
                                 Stick no more
                               No more weight on
                          The Connecting Thread

                         It 
                       was
                  Time-Wait
                 Experience in
                 Unburdening 
                   Of Weight
