Lets’s face it.
We keep trying
on and on
to get it.
All these words,
it is as if people are ranting on and on at us-
“THIS IS IT!! THIS IS ALL YOU NEED!”
and still and still…….
we just don’t get it.
We return to our homes battered,
Struggling,
At a loss to find
What we think we must have
At all costs.
And the wind still blows up in the woods, the owls still call plaintively their song of solitude and we curl up around our bruised thoughts and try to rest, try to forget. But even that forgetting is a way to remember. Still we try.
But let’s face it,
it is hard,
When all around us
Tell us
“It is SO EASY!”
“What do you want?”
What is this restlessness
That cannot be saited
What is this paranoia
That renders the self
Out of control
Yet stifled?
It is time to turn back and realise that there is no longer any use using our brains, when thought only places more paranoia on top of original paranoia; the paranoia that started this off in the first place.
It is time to take care of what really matters.
