Possession is nine tenths of a lie
and the obsessed know to appreciate beauty before saying,
"It's mine."
Nature doesn't believe in ownership
and she'll find the time to prove it-
Watch the sand slide your home into the gaping mouth of the sea
and you'll hear an echo in the wind breathing out,
"Impermanence is holy.
Transform yourself as I transformed your circumstance.
For to embrace change and roll with the current's wave
is to know life's sacred dance."
