The Romance

The Romance Poem: Following the mystic path is a romance that’s why you write poetry. Your soul is the Bride and God is the Spouse. Whether you are rich or poor, you face the same problem - how to get through the door. So it is best to begin the journey and find riches later. The things that lie inside are the treasures. The rich have the problem of decluttering while the poor can be more easily simplified assuming they have no desire. I like to think you can just borrow books and live by the library. You could become the poet laureate of not storing it. After you reach Sat Naam you can sing a kirtan. You could focus on your Headspace and remember your Guru. You could try writing prose and just let it flow. I could write “ the angled road of 2001” Realizing God could be your top priority placed first chronologically. Every day could be a micro-mirror-image of your entire Life. You could contact a muse by playing piano for a long time. The sublimity of sitting in a empty room is insane. Your mindfulness can be reflected in the world. You can have total flow of chi with your tea. It is hard to live without green tea and a Zabuton, I could just become Japanese. You can more easily enjoy the falling leaves if you have a SatGuru. You could go up again to Emily’s. If you did three straight hours professionally that would be exceptional.
