HAPPINESS

AS A SIDE EFFECT.

Forgiveness

industrialized.

A scaled miracle

that lets the others off the hook.


Redialing all the numbers.

Resetting all the stress patterns.

Solutions, much discussed -

- staring me in the face,

as I stand by

my tightly closed window.


The sunshine

is now compliant;

turned down

to the appropriate levels

of UV.


Risk-free

in its entirety.


The tree leaves

are certified green color,

the cloud shapes

- normalized,

made consistent

for the structurally sound sky above.

And those times I am assigned

to look at it,

I do truly

feel relief.

Finally.


All the aspects

and all the angles.

All the bitter

and all the sweet,

All the light

and all the darkness

have now been calibrated

into the outcome median.

Just in time

— for me.


“Grateful”

is the word I am prescribed,

for the following few weeks.

Focus on that word

to invoke emotion.

Observe each letter

with equal curiosity.


Replay in your head:

“What was shown

and what was given

is

to

revere

in all the looming darkness.”


Test all the declared sounds

at the tip of your tongue.

Sense the attributes

of the higher order.


This is the new beginning.

The beginning of owning nothing,

the beginning of feeling happier,

than ever before was possible,

as stillborn happiness

bears no inconveniences.

Made on
