Cascade

Look up

climb across the cavern of false fear

raise your arms greeting brethren throngs in airy halls brimming with light

Go out

stride along the craggy edge of false hope

bury your hands in bottomless pockets awash in lies that feed and fatten

Dig in

gaze upon the cascading storm of false truths

toss your precious certainties into the heedless flood of gravity merging all convictions into an ocean

collapsing

forever downward through our waking, our dreaming, our dying

Rest well

lie among the quiet, still pines

feel a cool breeze whispering of false success, yet glow in the warmth of healing

Laugh on

the rains return a promise of many lifetimes of lies

the land births bountiful confidence, sustaining industry, religion, artistry

all sullied by the impurity of good and honest effort

Fear not

a cleansing sea drowns our looking, going, digging, resting and laughing

dissolving fear, hope, truth, success, and lies

Trust the cycles

Trust the ocean

Trust the waterfall

Trust in the lie to carry you
