wake up

May 18th, 2016 § 0 comments

Poem #462 for Susana Grilo

 

to wake up
you need to be asleep
to begin
there must first be an ending
ease
needs difficulty

we are all victims of judgement
both as the judge and judged
it is the only reason for our fear
because there would be no worry
if it were not for the opinions
right
and
wrong

but what we also possess is humility
an inherent trait of all of the living world
and humility
allows us to focus on
the feeling of the endless moments
which
ultimately, inevitably
we will name, judge, as our life
but it is the feeling that matters
positive
and
negative

humility gives judgement no purpose
and therefore we are then able to act
from instinct
and be
the path
waking
existing
beginning
positive
rather than negative
which will exist none-the-less

balance

to exist means accepting that
none of this is real
to wake up
you need to be asleep
to begin
there must be an ending
