Meditation

He sits there, peaceful,
still,
so quiet

doesn't even seem to breathe.

He never shifts his gaze
or blinks;
doesn't twitch a muscle.

Match the height of patient stare,
Feel fierce heat of molten glare.

Spirit wars to master self.
Unconvinced soul seethes.

Cage of brimming, unaware,
endlessness adorned with flesh;

Machine awaiting next command.

He sits there, peaceful,
still,
so quiet

doesn't even seem to breathe.

It all conspired against me
