Poem: 'Fog and Flame' by Andy Horry

Fog and Flame

By Andy Horry

You deserve wisdom,

You deserve help.

But are you willing to listen?

Are you willing to walk?

You may think that you

don’t deserve to walk.

You may believe that

Your feet won’t work.

You convince yourself that

The tools you have are useless..

Yet you sit there and refuse

To take the first step.

That step of faith

Can’t be arrived at through

A process of your mind.

Take action on it now.

Don’t try and figure it out

So proud

Of your intelligence so loud.

Stop trying to walk

And just walk.

Trust that you can,

Trust that you’ll start.

Keep the faith in your efforts,

Walk through the fire of your mind.

Let go of effort,

Let go of thought.

Look deep within yourself,

Through the fog,

Through the flame.

You think the physical

Is where you reside

But once you see through

The mist you’ll see

Where you really were all along.

It’s beautiful.

You’ll see the hidden truth.

The stillness,

The power,

The ecstasy,

The vibration.

You’ll feel the truth,

You’ll become the truth.

The truth you were destined to be,

The truth you already were.

Maybe you still don’t think

That you’re worthy to walk

But whose thought really is it?

Where did you pick that up?

Is it really yours to own?

Why does it hold so much

Power over you?

Detach from thought,

Detach from the physical,

Align with the lyrical

That guides you to the spiritual.
