The Isn’t and the Is By Zen Gardner
The virus never yet’s been found
Yet theories based on naught abound
Handy tool, device of ghouls
Another fearful trick to fool
Big bang too, a deft device
Explaining cause with bad advice
“God” works well too, to ‘splain away
With Myst’ry kept at deft abay
To understand is just control
The ego knot, the little troll
Thrives on knowing this and that
That nuisance gnat, the little brat
Show me where this self resides
Lest this contraction be but pride
Illusion traps are woven spells
Made real by other ‘magined selves
Hard to believe? Of course it is
That selfsame self within you lives
Programmed, reinforced at will
Behold our whirled, and hence the ill
Nature not, it’s doing fine
A mirror of the deft design
But humans? Man, what happened here
We bit the apple- now the fear
We can’t let go and trust what Is
Everything is now our biz
The hyperactive fearful self
Will not let go, and that’s called hell

‘It is our first task to forgive, ourselves for learning negative,
thoughts which stick us to the web,
where spiders wait to sink their fangs
And drink our energy away
projections make it hard to live.
In hopelessness we cannot thrive.
But merely painfully survive
What we were taught is not our fault
Children of the starry vault
We are not limited by thought
Throw off the shackles of your mind
And realise you are not blind
So first unto yourself be kind
Worthless opinions of anyone else
Cannot touch you if you truly love
your Self.
