Why do we human beings on Earth recoil from what life is really about?

We were made to be more than animals, yet most do not see this.

We are worth more than chasing the social hierarchy slots & storing wealth like a squirrel does acorns.

Why do we concentrate on that that will not last over that that will?

Why will most of us never learn? Why do we fear to care about why we are here?

After all we’ve been through, why do we lack so much courage?

Is it because we fear the darkness in others or is it that we have embraced it in ourselves?

It makes no sense to cling to nothingness yet that’s what we do.

Isn’t It’s a scary thought to know you are trapped in an ego you can’t shake?

What is wisdom?

What is love?

Would you know it if you saw it?

Or would you reject it?

What’s behind the appearances of this world?

Are you afraid to think of these matters?

If you did, would you gain wisdom & know what Universal Love is?

Would your crippling neurosis’ all but melt away?

Why embrace your fears & stay living as an animal does?

There’s no winning in that.

Yet you fail to see that that is what you are doing.

Dare you release the shackles of conformity?

And find out why & what you’re here for?

It’s a Risk to attempt this,

But even more of a Risk to stay as you are.

A Clueless Animal,

Circling with madness,

Held in a cage,

That you’re blind to see.

Yet The Door Is Ajar
