supple Mind

the Mind is
     SILLY.

bad things
             come in
and
bad things
               go out.

the way it is
is
constant,
and no remedy
seems to be had.

it produces like poison.
it tells you
all of your faults.
it makes you
tumble
when there is no
hill to trip you up.
it finds the one thing
that hurts you most
and replays that thought
until you succumb.

but when you step
to the side of the
rambling thoughts,
you are the only one
remaining.
there is no pressure,
no hurt,
no doubt,
and no poison.

if others spoke
to you
in the way
your
        Mind
speaks to you,
you would let them go.

disconnect from
the bad thoughts
and hear what you
really
          believe.

it is simple to do.
just shut up.

be curious.

listen to the wind.
it might just blow you away.
