Look At The Sky!

Thanks Gabriel!

The sunsets where I live are always best before and during bushfire season... beauty always seems to come at a price.

Cool write, Nikki. I like the dry short tone in your delivery and the last lines made me laugh.

I get called negative like everyday, people hate the truth yet cry for it at night....
thanks for reading :)

Bang...ouch,true colors.(nice write)

condemnations of 'negativity' are born of the fears & a fake ego-based 'self-awareness' unconsciously designed as distraction

unfortunately, for us all, those of us who blithely judge others as 'negative' are following the same delusions of self that are the 'collective' distraction most easily accessible to them.....no one is to blame

if their 'positive thinking' had any component of equanimity to it, there would be no need to competitively 'brand' anyone else with the scarlet N letter

Equanimity is a 'self-awareness' with too painful a pricetag, as it calls into question one's own need to polarize, compete, be superficially judgemental.....all(such self-questioning) of which don't 'sell' well in the mass market.

this poem points well to a frailty which we all share, & are so unwilling to see.

~  I hope yr taking notes. Y'never know when yr gonna be hit wit a pop-quiz ~

I love this,  the truth, the tone, the sense of humor,, this is me around my buddhist friends

Way relateable. Thank you!

you want my eyes and mind covered like yours  
I get it, the colors and such
yes, yes beautiful
but on a grander scheme it's fucking ugly

It's beautiful up close. Order is just a tiny glimpse of chaos waaaaay close in.
