Paradigm shift

So easy to set down the frames

of all whereby I have defined myself

my attributes, my limitations, names

and every boundary in which I bind myself

So easy now to leave behind my ego

and all the tortured games of win and lose

which I have come awake embroiled in,

as if from dreaming, nothing I would choose

So clear to me that shame has no more place

and there’s no me that needs to be defended

We move together flowing into grace

and grace moves us just how it has intended:

the ego’s dissipation and the soul’s increase

beyond all fear and into primal peace.
