Casting out demons

We say, "Here, make a day. See, there is support."

But we don't do the hard work of asking, listening.

We aren't even interested in what it is, freedom.

Free to live a life without fear.

Free to wander without suspicion.

Free to live with others, without them moving.

Free to breath, free to wander, free to be.

Because this is a worm of our own making.

We have no idea how to calm it.

Because time is not what we want to give.

Throw and easy way out, give a bone.

Happy, calm, eased, not what is needed.

Peace, be still! Listen! Deeply hear!

What is more mindful, what is needed.

What will bring life is hard time.
