In such a world, I have forgotten how to truly suffer and have done my best to forget how to.
In such a world, I have blamed anxiety and stress to buffer myself from my suffering.
In such a world, I went to school and my religion to learn how to be complacent.
In such a world, I was not shown how to have and express anger, grief, and fear in a healthy way.
In such a world, where the top threat is the infectious unease of the human psyche.
In such a world, I have such rich opportunities and resources and squander them.
In such a world, where I can have my kingdom of comfort, using every trick to ignore my discomfort.
In such a world, where I claim false agency meanwhile discarding responsibility.
In such a world, where my body is alive here and now.
In such a world, where my soul is stirring and still wishes to be found.
In such a world, where my spirit rustles me from my hypnotic sleep.
In such a world, I attend to the call of awakening in every moment.
