Lose Oneself


I sit with no thoughts

this happens by all sorts

a vacuum in the mind

nothing in a kind lose oneself

I search all the way

nothing strikes me today

I see around me

nothing to  hold me in glee

I espy with an emptiness

unable to detect any sense

I sit there for long

away from the throng

with eyes wide open

focused, not on any token

that way I go into myself

hop and jump like an elf

not in the real front

but in my mental affront.

An Exercise.


Early in the morn 

it being an early dawn

with the silence all around

and a freshness in the ground

with  no sign of human sound

only  the barking of dogs in  a bound

sitting out in the garden

a place to unload the burden

talking to none  but to oneself

being a rare exercise by itself

which he  does with ease

making him free from any tease

rejuvenating  his memory well

keeping him agile in every cell.

None would like to follow

but  would be a sure allow

for all who talk so in the garden

without hurdles  in the flow.
