We suffer from a sense of separation Separation from self, soul, brothers. We suffer from thoughts run rampant in our heads, Emotions left unchecked, stuffed, and ignored. We suffer from memories stuck in our bodies In the tissues The cells Encoded and bound. The sense of separation is false, A lie. A myth we’ve been sold A part of our conditioning Domestication in drag. When we can stop And stare our faults, Straight in the face, Without cowering. Eye to eye with the shadow With love (and fear) And grace. We can then dance with our faults, Our Shortcomings Our humanity. And then my friend We realize we’ve always been whole. A part, Not apart, Of the cosmic wave. We see then that we’re connected To our souls and the divine. And can be there for our brothers who’ve been left behind.

Suffering is optional?
We suffer from a sense of separation Separation from self, soul, brothers. We suffer from thoughts run rampant in our heads, Emotions left unchecked, stuffed, and ignored. We suffer from memories stuck in our bodies In the tissues The cells Encoded and bound. The sense of separation is false, A lie. A myth we’ve been sold A part of our conditioning Domestication in drag. When we can stop And stare our faults, Straight in the face, Without cowering. Eye to eye with the shadow With love (and fear) And grace. We can then dance with our faults, Our Shortcomings Our humanity. And then my friend We realize we’ve always been whole. A part, Not apart, Of the cosmic wave. We see then that we’re connected To our souls and the divine. And can be there for our brothers who’ve been left behind.
