THE SECRET IS TO NOT MOVE AWAY
Are we so terrified of the moment
That we do all in our power to avoid it
Reaching for distraction
Trying to alleviate our pain
Through a multitude of sins
We are wily creatures
Yet we move away from the very thing
That brings relief to our suffering
The exquisite, painful, story less NOW
In presence there is no past to tyrannize us
And no future to beguile us
Just this that we have now
And how powerful it is to bathe in this river.
