Mantra (Pitfall)

 You are the way you think you are.

Exactly that way. 


On a rope

Gripped tight—white knuckles

Tension sawing through the bone.

Seeking to loosen

attachments.

Fighting,

To stay suspended

In the space

Above

The snapping jaws

Of some ill-timed

convention for

half-starved crocodiles.


What you think,

you are.


Eventually.

Let the teeth

and the frenzy

rise up.

do the Lord’s work.

Leave the bones

Splitting at their ends

as a monument

to knowing

Thyself.


You

are,

you think


You.
