living

living is keeping up with life

it ain't grabbing life

or getting life

or knowing life

and certainly not understanding life

living is being with life as life is

without resistance


maybe sometimes a little wonder

but only a little


to question life is to ignore life


life is the sacred trust

and the same for all


to exploit life is the curse of our time

and perhaps the greatest curse of all


sometime i wonder

why we are so afraid to see

what actually is


my best guess has been

that seeing the truth would destroy all our little dreams

and perhaps wake us up from the terrible nightmare we have created


most of us are not so good at the creator thing

has been my experience

we really aren't qualified for that situation

yet so many want to make life what they want it to be

and want is a lack of life

and not natural at all


life is a gift

and free to all


only those that reject life

can experience lack


no is why we suffer

as is know


yes is a living word

no is a dead word

thinking is the land of the lost

which leads to believing

which is a really dumb place to be


hope is an idiot mistress

as is believing

as great chaos is upon the land

and much suffering
