Self Observing Animals

breathe. sleep. dream. hope. live. love. free. heal. grow. rise. feel. free

to us, who knows not much,
yet with ignorance, we arrogantly move on,
i hope that we may see,
that there was nothing else there to see
our pride and base desires are true reality,
that we clothe distasteful to appear in fashion
and thus remains there to be passed on.

there is beauty in exactly what we are
we are self observing animals.
the shackle that we fight against - perhaps is freedom itself.

something i found in the closet- published

why risk believing what others tell u
when truth is essential to living.
why trust knowledge of books,
when u read so little of them
why depend on logic without data
when u can train your natural instincts
without a map, without guidance
the entire world lies bare open
to conquer without light,
without thoughts to win or lose

surely, such is impossible for most
for they lack disciple and resolve
yet do u not feel the need-
to taste freedom.
that your soul is calling out for.
