Adrift in the Rift

by djones_wit

Float around inside your mind just to see what you might find Close your eyes and be surprised The chaos crystalized You take a mental picture Of a momentary stricture Of mind manifest And you are just the guest Along for the ride you reside in this home but it’s not your own You wander and roam but every tome has a different theory and it’s hard to see clearly So you nearly lose your head as you skip off the tread Trying to understand you cry out a command but meet shifting sand So instead you embed and let your mind expand Higher patterns emerge far above the prior yearn No avoidance or grasping No clinging and clasping Only wonder and awe As you float around inside this new way of being Flowing is freeing and life is so fleeting we might as well dance Take a chance and find romance and sink into this trance Enhance the life you’re given by paying close attention Let the moment suck you in and show that you don’t ken You do not know, and yet you win Letting go, you now begin
