Hello ego. Don’t try to hide. I see you now and hear you. You’re noisy in the quiet. You give yourself away.
I recognise your game. I think I know the rules – course set for self improvement. No finish line in sight.
So I’ll take some time to stop. To look at who I am, with neither praise nor blame. And see what happens next.
Ego do your worst. You’re not welcome here. For I’m already dead, and breathing. Free from you at last.
