Fear
It seems that fear arises
with our believed departure
from Now..
With this departure
those many others arise
with unknown intent and
oft-perceived threat..
And so..the military budget
gains our attention revealing
unfavorable measurements..
Or the anti-virus software
becomes a moment's priority..
Meanwhile..others in fear
mirror our frightened ways..
We participate in discussions
which with accuracy lay out
the numbers for all to see..
So.. it seems..this is how it has
always been..
The secret of Now
awaits revelation by the few
who tire of futile repetition...
