WOLF POEM / DIS-EGO-MENT
Disentanglement — 5
The Bible of Letting Go
Molecule by
non-existent
molecule
then, from this word-free shore
now disentangle
from gurus, the multitude
of voices that has no right
(nor good reason)
to be multitudinous
the multitude that has
a duty to be singular
unified
agreed
true
And yes, the truth
lies buried somewhere
among this multitude
but is now impossible
to clearly determine for
this cacophony of me, me
me, mes — trust me for I
am the way — every voice
(but for very, very few)
guilty of envy and pride
and so many, many
guilty of the remaining
five deadly sins as well:
guilty of lust
guilty of gluttony
guilty of greed
guilty of sloth
guilty of wrath
yet they scream and rant
and assert and proclaim
not only their rightness
but their right to force
you to take their words
for it — or else
Who knows:
what Gotama really said
what Lao Tzu really said
what Jesus really said
what Mohammed really said
what Shankara really said
what other true gurus
really said
for what is handed down
to us (centuries later)
is translated
interpreted
embellished
quote clarified unquote
quote explained unquote
by a thousand false ones
each claiming sainthood
and that you listen and
bend to their powers of
persuasion —
bow to their guruness
for they are great
and you are not
amen
Disentangling this
Gordian knot is near
impossible but even so
it is the fifth object
of disegoment —
sever all tendrils
let go all filaments
shed microscopic clingings
sail clear of these sirens
out and upon blue waters
into clean air strong winds
for distant guru-free shores
