who are you?
tigers jumping through hoops
of fire
balancing
on one paw
leaping
over barricades
from stool to stool
turning
in circles
bears
riding bicycles
all for what?
to entertain
to impress
to be special
to have an identity over and above
"the ordinary"
what everyone has...?
to keep our focus
magnetized/hypnotized
to the outer
the body
the physical?
circus
ego
mind
chasing
jumping
pursuit of applause
performance
life is boring/empty/meaningless... without ever more outrageous actions
how long does the adrenaline last?
how deep does it reach?
does it ever
touch
Reality/our Wholeness?
or is it meant
to hide You
from
yourself--
your endless wells of joy
within
the ever free flowing fountain...?
are you
in touch
with You,
Reality,
at 3am
with no one around?
stillness
remains
profoundly
in the center
in
the midst
of
all of it
no ticket needed
no beginning
no leaving
this tent
this Shelter
of You,
Father
of
Us
All
