Aware Beings

Aware beings
Are those of us
who somehow
manage
To balance
ourselves between
A terrific,
sincere celebration and appreciation of self
Whilst at the
same time
Becoming more
and more thoroughly and
Often times
painfully
In touch with
the
Enormity of our
shortcomings and blindnesses

and

As we gloriously
and humbly
Muddle through
Hope to affect
an improvement that lasts and transcends
Any ill-effects
we have
In our graceful
dim-wittedness
Rendered

Not All Are Rule Book Followers

If you have difficulty

following rules

perhaps that’s because

                   you were born

                             to instead

create them.
