Satisfaction

Satisfaction

A Poem by Nan
"

a simple idea that works every time..

"

 

it seems love is aligned with satisfaction

being satisfied with one's own soul

is to experience true love.

consumerism creates need also

we're all looking for satisfaction:

it is sold by numerous merchants along the way.

 

it was because I watched you seeking

obsessively, continually, for something extra

fishing for something more

more than a mystic's passion for God

more than a seer's fancy for adventure

more than love's direct current applied

to the human condition

 

let me be the one to reveal to you

how easy life is if you simply

awaken those children inside of you

the ones you put down for a nap

way back in time

when you were too busy doing business,

so busy taking yourself seriously,

when you cracked open your first bottle

of "my ego's purpose" and slammed it down

all the way to the pisser

go now, and wake them up

they know the essence of being delighted

in this moment, and that is pure innocence.

 

now, laugh at yourself until you cry

 

delightenment

it's all around you

your ego is

dumbfounded by

genuine happiness

A great contribution to my contest. This was uplifting and pleasing, full of warm moments "let me be the one to reveal to you

how easy life is if you simply

awaken those children inside of you

the ones you put down for a nap

way back in time" --------warm and healing words, thank you l loved it.
