Our spiritual path begins with disenchantment
for how can we avoid learning that bad things happen
that people die, even those close to us
Hopi children are lucky to get this over with
by the ceremonial removal of Kachina masks
whose secret has been kept from them since birth
Only the dull spirited swallow the stories whole
whether fed Heaven and Hell or Evolutionary Psychology
without teasing them apart and playing with their food
We are all eagles in sheeps' clothing
playing with the wind, for what reason?
Sometimes I get lost taking the eagle eye's view
for how can we avoid learning that bad things happen
that people die, even those close to us
