Lost in the haze ..23rd July 2024
Lost in the haze
Perplexing concepts swirl around,
A maze of helplessness, a search for solid ground.
Existence reduced to mere bewilderment,
A struggle to find footing, a sense of discontent.
Theories and mantras, tantras and creed,
Leave me questioning, lost in a sea of need.
No clear direction, no guiding light,
Just the echoes of a desperate, sleepless night.
The call of the clairvoyant, the mew of the cat,
The bark or bite of the dog, all blend into a chat.
Meaningless sounds, a cacophony of pain,
A reflection of the turmoil that I cannot explain.
At the bottom of it all, I find my existence,
A fragile, flickering flame, a mere presence.
A sense of helplessness, a cry in the dark,
A longing for solace, a heart that's lost its spark.
Lost in the haze
Where are you?
Meandering, drifting, floating and vaporized
These theories, interpretations, mantras, tantras
You may never know the essence
Is it poison or nectar in the bowl
Until effects seen, you may never know
Delusion or real, till you are the pawn on board
Sucked into your own doings, not at someone's behest
The call of the clairvoyant
The mew of the cat
Bark or bite of the dog
All same, when nothing seems working
Confounding notions spread around,
Helplessness and how you exist,
At the bottom of this poem
