The Secret


'(From March 16th, 2014) 

Poem by David Sky -
The Secret

It is important to give up 
to let go 
to give in 
to give over 
all control 
utterly and completely

All of it just let it go 
ego blown asunder 
judgment dissolved 
simple as breathing in 
and breathing out

now riding away 
on the storms of bedlam, 
or drifting easily becalmed 
on a still and quiet sea

With equal aplomb 
heaving up onto the crest 
and sinking into the trough, 
under the hot sun of noon
through long nights alone 
the secret burning itself in'
