Daily: A Regular Routine

Clinging again,
Ah, recurring theme!
Keep coming back to,
A well-trod road;

More cold misery,
More letting go,
Emotional blizzard,
Let it pass through,

Practicing non-attachment
And getting unstuck;
Such hard work,
Seems an endless trek,

Easy to see how
Some could spend
All their lives
Focusing on nothing but,

Seeking a place
With but few distractions
To pursue this course,
For as long as suffering recurs,

It’s so simple
But so time consuming,
Does it ever end?
Or are these promises only?

Then directed myself
To let go of this too
And return to my activity
Of letting go,

Even letting go of
Letting go,
That’s what’s next,
And after that peacefulness,
And some well-earned rest.
