MUSINGS - Freestyle Rap About The Mystery...

I free-styled this ditty-rap during a trip to the Middle East...

The ONLY thing guaranteed in life -
Other than cheap thrills, struggle and strife -
Is change, decay and dust to dust...
So living a sacred life NOW is a must!
A sacred life allows us to be
Ever PRESENT in this Great Mystery...
And it starts with positive disillusionment -
Coz we're full of boredom, doubt and discomfort!
And once we re:cognize that most of the moments every day
We're preoccupied with silly things that arise and pass away,
That we're suffering the bondage of 'apparent' mortality,
Then we can start to FEEL the pattern of The Great Mystery!
And Divine Humor will disperse all the stress-full reaction
As life takes on a mystical and magical satisfaction...
This is the start of the 'spiritual journey' or 'quest'
And it's an ordeal of de-LIGHT, a comical test!
We all have an incredible adventure ahead,
An opportunity to grow, to DO LOVE INSTEAD...
To transcend fear and step into The Unknown
To probe the depths of heart discovery, together, alone...
Leap into the void that is pregnant with possibility,
Fulfill our potential and be high on whipped-Qi
Here's wishin' us all a wicked journey together...
May we grow and outgrow whatever the weather...
May we climb to the peaks and laugh in the rain -
And whichever route we take - Choose the BRIGHT path...
Again!

I love YOU...
More than fish can swim gymnastics
More than the Pope increases the single mom statistics
More than birds can fly and G3 can digress
More than Bush will lie and The Dalai Lama will bless
More than baked beans make us fart and certain plants make us high
More than Batman is gay and onions make us cry
More than terrorists are twisted and politicians are impure
More than flags breed contempt and soil needs manure
More than naked men look silly and ugly women make men think
More than blogs are for nerds like me and tabloids sell a stink!
More than even a casual ditty can be meaning-full and more...
I bid ye love from an ecstatic poet-whore...

Dedicated to all those who have the guts to embark on the road less traveled...g3 xo
