in a morning
yet unknown and yet unseen
my voyage ends
before me the universe
behind me the world

Introduction
finding peace of mind
the soothing sound of rippling water
the rustling of leaves
strengthens my tired mind
that’s fortitude
deep inner peace, the beating of my heart,
the music of life
caught in the rippling stream –
finding peace of mind

Distorted but Accepted
just so many mirrors
just images distorted
distorted but illusive
distorted and unloved
unloved by the viewer
unloved and be damned
damned visions of hatred
damned visions of fear
fear of the shadows
fear of what’s in my head
head full of impressions
head full of duty
[duty to be perfect
duty to please
please all of the teachers
please all of the world
world of competition
world of judgments
judgments and condemnations
judgments of my failures
failures to conform
failures to perform
perform like a monkey
perform like a clown
clown, clown cry and wail
clown (the joke is on me)
me and my shadow – my mirror
me seeing myself in you]
you walk bright and tall
you know everything
everything is a lesson
everything is your show
show and tell everyday
show everyone how bright you are
are you too aware …
are you too like I am
am I your mirrored reflection
am I your accuser and Nemesis
Nemesis to be defeated
Nemesis or no, maybe an ally
ally to be cultivated
ally to be understood
understood and embraced
understood and accepted
accepted as part of yourself
accepted with compassionate love
love
yourself
