In a time
Where everybody's
Hurried about
Worried about
Getting from A
To B
= C
Here's a little rhyme
Decidin'
To think about
Spending some time
Remindin'
Of the oft forgot
Though never not
Here and Now
Of D - E - F & G

Otherwise
We're not wise
But caught in a dream
Of what seems to be
Goin' on
As pushed and pulled by the tide of the throngs
So concerned with doing
Instead of singing our song
We've forgotten how to Be
You see
We've become like robotic machines
That "see"
Not so much from love
But only through the eyes
Of what someone built
And we bought
As us

Hypnotized
This is what's become of our lives
Not all of the time
But most of the time
Certainly some of the time
Yet instead
In a breath
We can equally and evenly
Realize
The light of our lives
Is a circular event

More than just time
Coming, or that's come and went
More than the hype
That would circumvent
But the sublime nature
Of not gettin' bent
Unless it means bending not breakin'
Being of Love received, unshaken
That's sent then sends
Which on a higher tip
Most often from a quiet tip
Means sharin' of what's
Whose
Already There
And not around some bend

This isn't making a mockery
Of action or time
This is fulfilling it
Taking greater stock, you see
Transforming the citch
Into more than a transaction
Or some buttons to hit
It's giving life a lift
By knowing
Sowing
Our greatest gift isn't in becoming who we'll be
It's Who We Are
Expressing our Free
Like what a car is to it's VIN
Love is Us
Like the sun that shines for fun
To warm, to adore
Instead of focusing only on
Needing
What the days gonna become
