How A Workaholic Meditates

Breathing

Deeply

Tapping into my inner Siddhartha

Watching the busyness darting around my mind

While impatience intercepts my thoughts

With weak attempts to distract, deter, and tempt

Even my so-called burdens don’t stand a chance

They get jealous of how unphased I am

Not thinking just feeling

Just healing just

Breathing

Deeply

I make it past the first 10 minutes

With the silence of dead air

Still awake and alert

Unbothered and not concerned

Tapping into my inner baby Yoda

A focus approaches this meditative coma

I’m enjoying so…

Breathing

Deeply

Morning pages free me

Incense and tea leaves

Help to play this game above the game

Follow me as I stay still on this paper chase

Income

Passively

Accumulates

Tactically

In the memory bank

Communicating how plants communicate

That’s how down to earth

Egoless and enhancing meditation preserves

Recalling chord progressions like Jimmy like Kurt

Drum patterns like Quest

Learning to read and reading to learn

While staring at the back of the eyelids

Envisioning, writing how Basquiat would draw

But on papyrus

Balling it up and throwing it in the Nile

Letting the mind travel and stream all the while

Breathing

Deeply

Like how a workaholic meditates
