Worldly Mind

Mind and world, twins separated at birth

Playing hide and seek with the notion of worth

We don’t understand how they can be one

Since inception, a different story is spun

We enter the world through the mind’s main door

A lifetime’s spent widening it so we could take in more

We’re forgetful and busy with a game that divides

How helpless we are when time decides

The inner and the outer, are they one?

Both share the instant in which they began

Secret to unity in mind and it’s world

Awareness that has long been spurned

Fear and consequences keep us going

On a ridge dividing ignorance and knowing

If the mind and the world are united

Our entry to into new wonders will be expedited
