Let us say that you come into an immeasurable fortune
not of material gain
but of amped up energy, more energy than you know what to do with
you discover this
by practicing hidden knowledge
now, you don’t know what to do with it
You try to attract people, but your energy pushes them away
if you don’t try, they are drawn to you
like a pre-school drawing, that doesn’t understand the larger picture
all of your insecurities, are magnified
even though, you know, they will diminish, if you don’t engage
striking a balance, with this excessive energy
is like trying to modulate sound waves on a spectrum of infinity
I have not changed myself, I have only increased my energy
but this is not to say, I have not developed from within
according to the unique intelligences that are my own
I have more potency, to go farther, into my inner journey
but, if I decide to extend that outward, it doesn’t work
if I don’t try, it does
trying, always gets in the way
so, I have to go on
not wanting
not caring
which is easy, even though it doesn’t seem wise
in fact,
not wanting
and not caring
is how I acquired this energy in the first place
What I didn’t pursue, came to me
like faith
letting go of desire,
then desire blew up in my face
I keep reaching for it
because it seems natural
practical,
but it always
runs away.
