how does the mind find clarity
when it is at its foggiest;
in the darkness before dawn
or before fading into sleep
are the times
when meaningful inspiration strikes;
these are the moments
when the mind is relaxed of its cares,
too tired to hold up the walls
penning in its fears and restrictions
it runs free,
tripping down whatever paths it chooses;
the most difficult practice -
a wonderful gift -
is to understand
how to free the mind
from these self-imposed shackles,
to let it free
to dance in the daylight
