focusing on everything
that is not
holding on to what
can never be
while blaming all
which never was
is a shortcut to
perpetual frustration
fear
and fabulation
while grace can be found
every moment
in the smallest
of all
appropriate
when facing fear
is leaving one
in sheer
panic
it might be the appropriate moment
to ask
for help
disconnected
being disconnected
from ourselves
whether it is
a permanent condition
or an ephemeral state
might be seen as
a standing invitation
to return
dilution
when heaviness
is diluted
by loving presence
what could be and was considered
a heavy burden
becomes
a treasure
without end
aloneness
when aloneness
has become
the fundamental condition
it can be a challenge to believe
anything else
to be possible
which would not mean
anything else is
impossible
tension
when deep peace
is settling
simultaneously with
trembling agitation
it leaves a span of tension
inside the body
a subtle power which can either serve
to destroy
or to heal
blurring
being systematically
humiliated
not flagrantly
rather in subtle ways
invisible to everyone
even the one concerned
veils the clarity of the mind
with a screen of confusion
inhibiting the shine of the soul
meant to illuminate
the world
diminishing the intensity
of its light
hence the power
of its mercy
blurring the faculty
of discernment
into inappropriate
conclusions
as the world is seen
through the very same screen
of humiliation
demands
when the expression of
our individual needs
being the physical side of
our individual talents
are being disregarded as
unreasonable demands
a subtle connection is being
disrupted
and the approach to our essence
little by little
lost
silencing
being able to express
the wisdom
coming from inside
after a life of
silencing
sounds just as simple
as it is not
disregard
disregarding the call for rest
when rest is required
is depriving ourselves of
freedom
