Unseeking Seeker Poet Rhyme

we made a note of this

impacted by a verbal assault 
although we rebounded soon
the incident made us reflect 
on cause why we did so swoon 

stuporous is our awareness
driven mostly by instinct
we react as of our ego nature
our heart with God not linked

until our response is gentled
in an unbroken continuum 
we remain to our ego captive 
which contains feral residuum

Silent One January 31, 2024 at 11:32 AM Your poem warns against remaining captive to the ego, which harbours unresolved emotional residue ("feral residuum"). It calls for a transcendence of primal instincts and ego-driven reactions, advocating for a more enlightened and spiritually attuned way of being.. nicely done.. Unseeking Seeker January 31, 2024 at 6:05 PM Thank you, Silent One. In certain schools of spiritualism, it is hinted that our awareness should be seamless through waking, dreaming and deep sleep states, before we can claim that we are indeed awake.
