NOISE

Inside of me, there is noise

Outside of me, there is noise.

Outside seems greater,

but indeed-inside is greater.

For if noise exists outside,

I can gladly ignore.

But if noise exists inside,

blind ignorance is what I do.

A stupid delusion,

’cause I am not me.

The firmness of my insides

thrives where less the noise.

Noise-Noise-Noise…

Distractions-unnecessary some,

Worries, anxieties, thoughts, thoughts,

Carrying tomorrow’s burden today,

Cares too heavy for shoulders so human,

Attention to details better left unattended.

The basic things go under…

The little-ings come on top…

And before you know it,

You are a floating bubble

As real as fake

As full as empty

As weighty as light

Close your eyes-turn off the light of your soul

Kill your senses-deaden your feelings

Look inside-pretend it’s just you,

Because indeed, you are, just you.

Just one man, in one place,

Doing one thing, at one time.

The firmness of your insides

Thrives where less the noise.
