::: 200 Milligrams Of Zen :::

The whole world is going mad and
I got both feet on the floor, waiting
to stomp on fear, deflating it of all underlying deceptions.
I got 200 milligrams of Zen for all dreamers always
hustling to beat somebody else's drum-
day in and day out, not realizing your becoming numb by
daily toil and failed expectations, always robbing you of
a quiet space to sit and read wind, contemplate aspirations;
freezing worry that stifles life from traveling deep down into soul.
I got 200 milligrams of Zen for anxiety, which is carved
on torment so deep that pure alcohol can't cleanse the wound.
Mind wrapped up in next meal, next event, next trip, next check
is mind deceived from truth of existence which is only NOW directly.
Here is all there is and 200 milligrams of Zen will calm you into the
quietude of meditation,
reveal to you the impermanence of all phenomena
and crystal clear the mirror of perception covered in dust.
