i shall not want

the thought

"i want...."

kicks up the dust

in the mind

CLOUDS

the air

the space

the vision

of everything

"i want"

boards over

the spring,

i can no longer see,

hear,

feel,

it's flow coming through me

the effortless

fullness,

the laughter,

the sparkle

gone out of my eye

the moment

"i want" kicks up

the dust in my mind

horses stir

to prepare

for this endeavor

hoofbeats,

sweat,

flaring nostrils,

the call of sex,

of animal,

of body

"i want"

blocks

the stillness,

Origin

i forget

the still

become

tantrum

drum

drum

drum...

drumming

my identity

because

as soon as i stop

the silence

is

i shall not want.

yeah, though i walk

through the valley

of the shadow of denial,

i will fear no ego thoughts,

for stillness is what i am
