Oct 12 - Seek Truth

Maggie Devers

I can see the waning moon from my window

And shake off more of what I do not want

For life is not suffering 

And we can all taste sweetness.

Time now to stop trivializing the fundamental 

Seek truth instead

Know yours and hold it safe

It will be all that’s left

If the dust ever truly settles.
