Light Load

It's the heat of the summer,
everything at its peak of activity,
inner chi practically jumping off my skin.
My inner wildman yells "let's party!"
while the wise man bids me caution
reminds me that I'm no spring chicken.

In the midst of all this is timeless Awareness,
noticing the inner folly and flak,
providing the space for whatever arises,
whether it's 'wise' or 'crazy' activity,
and in that great space
karmic weights released and dissolved
exposing a bright buoyancy and
a lightness, space and joyousness
to body, self and world
resolving themselves in a blissful singularity
in the Obviousness of Transcendent nature.
