Inserted ear buds Attempted confinement Chained to misery. My igloo of isolation with the computer doesn't hold well against Winds of anxiety blowing torrents of stuff through my mind. An arctic tundra of ravaged grass. Long-necked lamp looms Waiting anxiously for me and Witnessing bouts of non-progress. Perpetrators impregnate fleeting tranquility Never wanting me to win in my concentration. --Bony bodies slipping under the crack in the door. They are the Monkey Mind I have to escape from. Many. Petty. Fears. This is the way my consciousness wages war. Ripping itself apart Defeating purpose till there is none. During battles, Monkeys Rule It All. At the end I shall win.

Monkey Mind
Inserted ear buds Attempted confinement Chained to misery. My igloo of isolation with the computer doesn't hold well against Winds of anxiety blowing torrents of stuff through my mind. An arctic tundra of ravaged grass. Long-necked lamp looms Waiting anxiously for me and Witnessing bouts of non-progress. Perpetrators impregnate fleeting tranquility Never wanting me to win in my concentration. --Bony bodies slipping under the crack in the door. They are the Monkey Mind I have to escape from. Many. Petty. Fears. This is the way my consciousness wages war. Ripping itself apart Defeating purpose till there is none. During battles, Monkeys Rule It All. At the end I shall win.
