Be, You



 


Are you feeling you today?
Like the behemoth blue river
Which suavely sways
Which ferociously falls
Or are you the river today
Which is contained
Within a mountain of concrete
That someone built to harness you.

Are you feeling you today?
Like the mighty mountains
Covered in gregarious green
Home to the beautiful birds
Or are you the mountain today
Which has been razed
By people to build their paths.

Are you feeling you today?
Like the endless ocean
Concomitant with calmness
Where woven are many worlds
Or are you the ocean today
Which is blemished
By those who spew oil and filth.

Are you feeling you today?
Like the morning dew drop
On a full of life leaf
Untouched and fresh
Or are you the dew drop
That bears within dirt
That people sprayed and spread

Are you feeling you today?
Like the unbridled thought
As clear as an autumn sky
Without a spot and blue
Or are you the cluttered sky
The early signs of a tempest
Looming boulders of grey

Are you today, you?
Are you not what you are?
You are after all, your thought
Flow wide like a contained river
Rumble like a razed mountain
Be violent like an angry ocean
Fall like a burdened dew drop
See sun through the dark clouds

Be, you.
