Inspired by 'Life and Death' (p. 132)

Carnival of Egos

The world will spin, so why not dance with it
rather than sit in the corner and hold on for dear life
and pretend
that it's gravity that holds you down.

This is not side show alley
although you could be the clown
your head moving side to side
mouth wide open, ready to receive.

Waiting for the next, ping, pong

You could win
but you'll probably loose

You both will
the ego can't catch what the soul throws

when the soul observes
the ego lets go
