consciousness
is not going to come
down
from anywhere—
already here,
fundamental power
no books
no concepts
no ego fodder requirements
mostly automatic
but for I am…
entanglements
with mind stuff
log off this energy,
just remain
empty,
notice that space
of being
so effortless, natural
no need for spiritual
doing—
pay attention
chatter goes on & on & on
but
skip street fighting with it
rest in
reality without reflex
identifications
pretense's promises
faux feelings
this is radical
seeds of awakening
in a sleeping world
stay as you are
still—
let the natter of the mind
settle its dust in
the quietude of you
quality of being
sharpen it
over & over & over
again
&
again
&
again
abide in this
observation
establish within your breath,
your loving heart
energy
(works every time)
allow yourself
to simply be
solely
consciousness
