When things go wrong
as they sometimes will
can you stay in the Centre
and be there still?

Or are you at the beck and call
Of things that on your senses fall?

Can you detach your self
from ebb and flow
Refrain from where
reactions go?

Can you rise and go
beyond what’s been?
Can you be the Seer
and not the seen?

Can you live within your higher Self?
Can you lift beyond your lower shelf?

Can you still yourself
in Silence see?

Can you just the silent Witness ~ Be?
