Monkey Mind

The anthem of confusion

Anchored

To illusions

Wearing the fa(r)ce

Of reality parading in

A masquerade.

 

The contrary clown laughs

At attempts to eliminate paradoxes

Obscured by fog,

Rolling over in somersaults

Urging futility to overcome valor

To keep himself merry.

 

Clarity sings from the centre,

Hear knowing begins in

Relation with ground beneath feet,

From which labyrinth spirals

Out to where Elephant

Emerges from the eye of a needle.
