Zen mode
observing tension build up
within mind-body apparatus
the root cause being attachment
to a desired outcome sought by ego
which when belied causes concern
so recognising thus our delusion
we pause the cause of thought
laying ego cravings to rest
had we not opted to enter trance
heart contractions would not arise
and we’d have been denied immersion
in the labyrinths of dungeons of darkness
so we celebrate moments of anguish
yet take care to remain mindful
to rebound to reality swiftly
