Tired

Why am I here?

Silence

What are my intentions in showing up?

Nothing comes to mind

What are some of my relationships that are full of care?

I don’t have any

I am tired

I am empty

I do not have the capacity

My mind is still but dull

I am sleepy

I am all but dead

My teachers are spewing wisdom

Poorly received

My peers are getting into it

Hardly acknowledged

Spiritual practitioners everywhere are working with me

Gone unseen, unappreciated

Why am I here?

What are my intentions?

Why have I shown up to nothing but not showing up?

I am confused

I am deluded

I am lost

And here I am
