Disrupted Calm
it is the outer world that can disrupt
the calm held within
recognize the patterns
step back, re-begin
others’ stuff
can even be intentionally set
to rattle your calmness
to seek reaction and get
the satisfaction of knowing
they have the power to affect
the presence, that sacred presence
we honour and hold
let it be
step back and be free
of the chaos out there
and with a simple prayer
return to your calm
