A Believing Bone


















Out of nothing
and out of no way
Way appears

I've been 
mumbling
whispering
chanting 
this not a haiku mantra to myself for days. 
I heard it, read it, somewhere.
It's stuck good.


How many times a day do you scramble your brain 

trying to figure it out?

How much time do you spend turning a problem 
over and over and over and over  
so you can see it from every angle, 
because of course, 
the solution lies
in turning chewing twisting squeezing, strangling? 

whatever it is

until dammit

Problem
situation
challenge
heartache
fear
freak-out
___________ feel free to fill in the blank

solved.

I've spent lifetimes 


twistingchewingturningsqueezing


muscling anyone? 

my way through...

It's exhausting. 

why don't I just do an Ironman and get it over with? 

run bike swim climb mountains carry logs across rushing rivers


Try: whispering this sweet mantra to yourself, 

even if you don't have a believing bone in your body ~
















out of nothing
out of no way
Way appears

really.
