Meditation

Looking inwards I see
Unrecognizable hues, contours, shapes
still forming

Familiar hands slip away
Loosening their grip
As I too loosen mine
I let them go as they float down
into the past
a haze born of self imposed boredom

my mind empties of ambition and
the edges of feelings are softer
rounder
less jagged

Calmness closes over my head
and engulfs me momentarily

One of the zen sayings comes to mind as I read your poem....“Let go over a cliff, die completely, and then come back to life - after that you cannot be deceived.”
