Lines for Lockdown
In an uneasy but resigned
relationship with you;
As weeks roll by,
My daily activity pledges,
To achieve inner stillness.
Mostly,
There is no haste...
In my mind of any sort.
And I am thinking,
This may be,
An evolutionary process,
Initiated by you!
In the way,
My life is going,
Though,
I am in a private prison.
I don't feel like a prisoner.
In an uneasy but resigned
relationship with you;
As weeks roll by,
My daily activity pledges,
To achieve inner stillness.
