Delights Inalienable [Rev.]

The change comes through sweet, heart-lifting words:
the answer is inner sanctuary - offering unconditional
love to everything - the world of physical appearances
in mineral, animal and human life - all creation is alive,
every particle has its own ego; my guru says when we
respect all others to have their wishes - we shall also
get the universe’s respect for all our personal wishes

When we EXPECT that all is well - all turns out well,
when we EXPECT drama & adventure, challenge &
excitement - the events befall us since the universe
ALWAYS brings what the subconscious really wants -
whether or not it makes us happy; I’m seeking things
to enchant me: sunlight changing the foyer into sticky
toffee, flowing poems from a beloved poet touching

My heart so I can sing for him, friends sharing feelings,
alpine-white soap bubbles while washing porcelain - a
foaming lace tablecloth, turquoise blue of the pool, the
high green leaves of trees creating me alone a forest,
driving fast in high-powered cars, swerving in traffic &
sharing laughter & smiles with hooting taxis; then my
comedian-son imitating grown-ups in modulated voice

Daughter squeezing me with love while complaining I
intrude in her room, Scorpio grocery-shopping safe from
strangers’ intrusion, icy-water sensation on sun-warmed
legs - delights inalienable, the only things between us &
them are our decisions - my work-flow’s standing still, as
painful red-hot motivation bows to passionate fire of
ice-blue inspiration, no self-defeating auditing allowed

To dampen grey today’s delighted feelings - domani -
I’ll deal with guilt tomorrow, & tomorrow never comes!
