What Is Awareness
One would think that knowing
Means to be aware
Then with time and little honesty
Finding there was only wishful thinking there
The truth is slippery
To a soul with changing perceptions
What appeared to be an oasis,
Was really a soul-debilitating deception
Isn't everything in motion?
Atoms, planets, the galaxy
Then we create new religions
Making truth of stagnancy
Perhaps this realization
That we are myth surfers in constant motion
Is an advancement toward our heaven
That awareness is an endlessly expanding ocean
