When the practice goes out the window

When the practice goes out the window

That is the practice

No need to lament or blame

Get down or disheartened

For now, the practice begins

Take a deep breath

Let go of expectation

And keep the window slightly ajar

To what is being thrown-out, discarded and why

What can’t be sat with in presence

What can’t be kindly given any attention

What is the pain

What is the deep Fear

Peer back in

From outside the window

Throw yourself back into the practice

As all you will ever need, is waiting there for you
