“Let Go, Or Be Dragged”

Simply sit down.
Don’t seek the Way,
you are already
on your way.
Just be present and
as you awaken,
the world awakens:
colors shout fragrance,
birds recite poetry,
breezes whisper caresses,
rivers of music flow.
light smells of hope.
Consider your past,
but do not dwell there;
consider your future,
but do not expect it.
Now is the only Is.
Peel away the squawking
layers of your heart
like an onion unwinding,
like a snake molting.
Approaching nothing,
you arrive at everything.
Do this until you think
you will vanish
and then vanish:
the more you lose,
the more you are.
