forgive me
for i have sinned


sinned is "missed the mark"
according to eckhart tolle
to me, it is missed the point
was giving primacy to the me
living for a phantom
the ghost that i feed and pretend is real
instead of living for the heart
in integrity
cut off by meanness stinginess projecting my shadow self on my teacher
on every friend and enemy
so easy to escape my reality
here i am here i am devoted dear mother
i surrender now
