Always challenge what you believe
Your mind plays tricks on you like a deviant dealer in the dark laneways of the city's streets
He beckons you to come a little closer, as he hides in the shadows
"Do you want to play a game?"
"It will only cost you a penny"
But for a penny's play, you could pay much more
Be mislead by the trickster and it can take you to sharp corners leading from a mansion of abundance to a slum of scarcity
One misled step and your foot can fall into a wettened concrete path whose chance to solidify just arrived
The mind is a fraudster claiming to be the CEO of your corporation
Hazed by the cloud of time
Amnesia sets in as you forget the corporation is but an illusion on the stock exchange of our earthly desires
Believe the mind to be you, and your mind will rob you blind
But feel your truth emanating within you and your sight will be restored
Like a blind man miraculously seeing for the first time.
