just play it.
(whatever it is you're doing right now),
take it down further and further.
go as deep as you can with it.

it doesn't matter what it is
or where you are
down will stay down
and you will go deep.

zoom right in
lose all else
don't even think about it
just feel it out.

let it happen.
don't be scared.
let go.
get involved.
love everything deeply,
without reservation.
get attached.

then when it all gets
too much,
pull out for moment.
take a breather.
remind yourself
that it's all just a game.

then you'll find
it isn't so hard anymore,
to live dangerously,
to live madness
and love madly.
