Paradox, a poem by Jed McKenna

Recommended Posts

If you're not amazed at how naive you were yesterday,

you are standing still.

If you're not terrified of the next step,

your eyes are closed.

If you're standing still and your eyes are closed,

then you're dreaming that you're awake.

A caged bird in a boundless sky.

i'm terrified as hell of the next step.. i guess i'm getting close.

 

beautiful poems, yet scary at the same time. i never signed up for self-suicide.. i thought enlightenment was all bliss and happiness.. now i find out that there's no real me here.. fuck!
