Like A Lion's Roar [Poem]

Like a Lion's Roar 

Oh, All of this apathy and agitation….
Life-negating cynics drain the fun out of life like a leaking water balloon.
Y’know what? That’s IT!!!!

I’m going to the highest mountaintop and declaring,
With all of the confidence of a king,
With all of the loudness of a lion:

“Clarity and Peace are the natural states of Mind!
Love and Laughter the essence of the heart!
Vitality and Energy the original intentions of the body!
Beauty and Profundity the innate qualities of the world!!
Goodness and Fun the primordial plan of Life!!!
Same goes for everyone! People are awesome!"

Upon hearing, the cowardly hyenas ran away.
They don’t understand the Brave and Mighty Lion.
“No! Life Sucks!” they grumpily growl,
As they hide in caves of fear, doubt, apathy, and cynicism.
I hope one day they will peak out & see, like a shining sun,
The basic goodness of the world, life, and themselves.

Until then, I’ll just have some fun in the
Fields of Freedom with my friends.
Why not come and join us?

  1. If cynics drain the fun out of life for you like a leaking water balloon, that's a clear signal of a conditioned frame of mind. It's expectations, not the behaviour of others, that causes the discomfort.

  2. They don't drain the fun out of life for me, they drain the fun out of life for themselves. I remain untouched.
