Containing chaos



Despite our desperate attempts 
To contain the chaos, it spills over — 
A gentle reminder that if its origin 
Is largely external, it’s simply passing through: 
Just wait it out. 
It’s the internal chaos that must concern us: 
The unguarded rush of feelings and responses 
That can knock us off our seats 
If we lose sight of the calm connectedness 
At the center of being.
