Being and becoming...

Forgetting that Being
you are lost
into the process
of becoming.

You get tied up
with becoming
something
all the time
you want to be this,
you want to be that.

You don't want to end
the becoming
into Being
wherein lies the whole secret
of becoming.

Becoming is itself not an independent
something
it's a radiation of Being,
it's a projection of Consciousness,
that basic eternal Essence
which Thou art.
