My mind is not at rest.
It is encumbered and entombed with:
signs and symbols,
numbers and variables.
These values cause my mind to shrink.
With a shrunken mind, I can no longer see
the rolling landscapes,
the life-empowered trees,
the magnificent mountains,
the endless oceans and flowing rivers,
the birds and bears that live throughout
the peaceful land
that my mind can find serenity in.
