hush
Empty your mind
hush,child.
and now let the sweet rhymes gush in,
Fill your mind with a beautiful utopia

Shush
Calm down,my love
there is still time
empty your mind
let the stillness seep into you
let it settle.

breathe, child
you're like a disturbed puddle of water
you see
but, through the ripples and hazy visions

not through the calmness;
only the quandary.
not through yourself;
only through the charlatan that you are.

you focus not on the balm
but only the salt ready to be sprinkled

and then,
*you burn.
