Revelation!

What an act of liberation

To laugh at my life's repetition

Of the same old explanation

Of why my



Pomposity



Was visible to all the world

Not me



As I become aware

Of the gift of



Humility



I finally and clearly see

The sad loss of spontaneity

occasioned by structured rigidity



Of self



Brought on by belief in



Superiority



We are such loving clown's of nature

Simple and joyous when unguarded

Why waste a life constructing costumes

we think, when worn will show our power

To all we sense are not our equal

When all this acting jails our loving

Of those who already know our folly

Such silly disregard of who we truly are

Sadly keeps us from our simple selves!



Time is not forgiving

Nor is it a constant

Hurtful history is fast to fade

When having finally found

The key to life well spent is

honest loving of myself

Celebrating the joke I am

And in peace believe in



Simplicity
