Ego Versus Spirit Poem by Leon Jaime Villegas

Spirit attaches to nothing
needs not a thing to attach to
everything is of Spirit
Spirit is, Spirit was
all permanent in time
ego with no form
has an urgent need
gain relevancy
to attach to everything
wishes to acquire life in some kind of form
ego, always impermanent
lives in fear of the unknown
which has no knowledge of
and is detached from...
feeding egos a mammoth task
never ending in sight
anguish, unhappiness will grab hold of us
as if an event of worth
Our lives come to lack
in constant struggle finds
ego versus Spirit
