Through my shoes

"It is the conflict of the mind that manifests war. When individuals change, society will automatically change." Ammachi


I remember when I had peace.
Tonight I sank my feet
in to the earth and sighed.
I looked out and saw
all that was orbiting me.

I am a universe of my very own.

After that, I noticed
that I was also
a satellite.
Spinning gracefully
through cosmos.
The ground under my feet
the garden in my view,
the sound of the street.
All these things are with me,
as well as all my feelings
all my self
all my love
it is there with me always
never seperating. Only
detached at times.
A puzzle that needs
put together. A tangled
ball of twine.
This morning I awoke
earlier than I would want.
I thought it was a knock on the door,
but it didn't come again.
I came from a dream
where I was arguing with
someone.
"I deserve this,
I worked hard for this!"
Like the universe
owed me
some entitlement.
Funny that I cling
to the earth
through my shoes.
