Not the arrow itself Are you regressing, receding, retreating Letting your mind and emotions make sure the way if safe? Best not to venture out in front In front of these baggaged issues Rather sit back behind them in safety Controlling the flow of what comes in I'll drive the ship And keep watch for the rocks Best be safe Only a fool lets the tide take his boat The very tip of this sharpened arrow Is a vulnerable, raw and defenseless place to be Who will protect me if I go there? Best to sit at the feathers and steer. Or I could venture out for a tiny peak I've come to wonder just what I'd see... Floating in softness A sea of calm Gently residing In God's nurturous palm That's enough! Enough! There's no control out there Phew! Back to safety I can not dare! Just to be the tip And the tip alone To find the answer To every koan Love that one too. Cosmic Rush Being no one Moving at the speed of light Leaving myself behind Lost my head, lost my hat. In what cosmic windshield will I land with a splat? Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
