chewing

How to tie together nothingness-?
tell me how to capture the evil and I'll do it
I will throw a great net around the beast
I will wrestle it to the ground
This wild impostor
who steals my mornings
replaces days with nights
and years with more years..
Yes, someone show me now
show me how to hunt this creature
tell me where to find this phantom-
who crumbles countries
who starves children.
I go willingly into battle
with an enemy who looks
as I do, who walks and talks as I do
I go into battle with myself
to keep this poison out
everyday. Billions of words
miles of words
and to what avail?
Uninspired with inspiration-
Never take anything seriously
except Yourself
whom is not who you are.
The self you see in the mirror
is someone else.
