Dear Presence, Why Are You So Elusive?


Goodbye presence,

Hello distraction.

You're back so soon.


I was hoping you'd give me a break,

so I could spend time with presence.


But no,

You decided to creep in again.


Fine.

Now that you're here,

I have to ask.


Where am I,

If not here?


When am I,

if not now?


Do you really want my attention that bad?


And presence,

If only you were a little easier grasp.


Or perhaps by trying to grasp I'm missing the point.

sort of like a dog chasing its tail.


What if instead,

I just noticed.


Noticed how my attention is there,

Noticed how my focus is then.


And by simply noticing,

I'm back here,

now,


with you,

presence.


 

Live with substance!
