Just stating the obvious poetry contest
enabled now for co-creation
our free will chooses
either blissful joy or agitation
within vibrant void of stillness
ego thoughts rested
that that is is bliss in fullness
clues abound we see them not
as each breath renews
fickle attention in fears fraught
we shine bright as love and light
bewildered by shadows
delusion veiling wrong from right
looking in within what do we see
attachments fleeting
stagnation therein cause of ennui
identity dissolves in joy continuum
desire births anxiety
soul free devoid of ego residuum
life a flow not a fixed coordinate
yet we fuel passion
oblivious to bliss pulse that elates
be to become at ease as the breeze
unfettered unbound
celebrating in embrace and release
