The unhappy poet...

Why do you argue?, light spirit..
the spirit does not consume the food of ego..
you stuff your mouth with words..
difficult to digest..

your mind simmers with pain..
the pain of separation..
more painful because of knowledge..
the knowledge of ego..

the answer is the cure..
the cure is Staying Awake..
it is easy to fall asleep,
within the domination of ego..

we seek happiness..
and yet we believe that it exists elsewhere..
the ego keeps whispering,
I am happiness..

Humility seeks to be your friend..
you send him away without being fed..
you cannot serve two masters..
pick One, and be earnest....

namaste, thomas
