journey to find worth


going fishing with the wrong pole, 

to a lake that casts no reflection,

as if it was a face, 

that had never learned how to smile.

and the journey there

had preconceived intentions, 

that really didn't apply.

each moment seems to present that way.

expectations are always that journey.

somehow a smile starts from within

and not by looking reflectively forward.

going out with expectations

to an expectation that can't be met,

as if it is the world I live in

that has never learned how to be of presence.

and my journey there

had preconceived intentions,

that really, in a reality context,

don't apply.

so I go out as if awareness adventures,

to curiously discover 

with what means I have,

as if life is rich that way.

and to look into everything that presents,

as if there is an inwardness there

to avail myself of,

even though most of reality mundanely passes.

there is energetic truth everywhere,

even though the rigor of observation

is self-imposed 

and subsequently so

intimately self rewarding . . .
