The Path

Into the breech we struggle with our egos, we cut and paste
Little by little, one by one we are stripped of our illusions
until by the end, alone we realize we are nothing
but ordinary, the true nature of our souls
is locked away under a million moving
layers of deception which we wrap
up in to keep away the cold
the unknown
which
we
have
been conditioned
to fear and cling to our stupidity
perceptions lead only to samsara
the endless spinning wheel to nowhere
Gautama where are you when we need you
we are frozen in time clinging to everything we wanted
to be rather than what we could become if we embraced the path
