ZEN

by Sam Roberts

Don't disturb my ZEN-a phobic chi pen.
Inner peace, of the cynic centred friend.
For you and I are dust on this plain.
The Petal. The Pedestal. The Lust.
In the core crying - Settled silence.
Of us.

And there is no sadness.
So Think.
Drink life - away.
Into the wholeness of this alliance.

Mother nature is defiant.
When you look down, the bough
Be profound, and your friend ZEN will dive into the white, fright.

Did you know, that "CELF", In welsh
means "ART?".
To part..
..and feel everything and everyone, in the heart of an eye.

Author's Note: Edited, I think my style is controversial in terms of form. Trying to break away from the normal structure.

Nice work, Sam! Both metaphoric and metaphysical. Good to read you again. :)
