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.
