Clatter of a Stick ~ Sadhguru Poetry

Clatter of a Stick
As a Stick clattered my Heart
raced, as this day is of reminder
A lifetime ago a man of unsteady gait
I believe, as he was accompanied by a Stick
Came and ridiculed all I did
and intended to do, when me who was
involved in many a sacred practice and
able bodied too, could not comprehend.
He Raised and touched the tip of the Stick
To my Brow to Dazzle me in a moment.
And was gone when I opened my eyes
Overflowing with light and Humbled
Wandered through mountain, valley, plain
and beaches. Wanted to see if I could
squeeze a bit more light and Bliss
of that incredible Stick. Wandered
for a full cycle of years twelve in
search of a footprint or the Stick.
He had destroyed all that was sacred
He seemed to have dissolved into all
there is… Since then
I have been bowing down to all that I see
The thin air is thick with him
The most foul and fragrant are loaded with him
which so ever way I turn it’s Him.
May you not wander like me
in search of a footprint or a Stick.
When the fullness of the Moon is
Here.
Blessings to you on this very Special Day.
Guru Pournami Blessings to you. Namaskaram
