Meditating On A Dream.

So many are promising to save us whilst living empty lives.
The collective is engaged in meditation.
They exist in existential dreams.
The world is not as it seems.
Hatred is not busting at the seams.

The collective exists in dream states, living in parallel worlds,
with their hearts united, they will conquer hate.
Hate is feeding hatred, and it is growing stronger.

Many believe that if we meditate on the dream, collectively, we will conquer hate,
all is about our well-being; the all-seeing eye can pierce within and lead us to the light.

We are the rainbow children, still wearing flowers in our hair.
Many believe we will conquer violence through the power of silence and withdrawing into ourselves. Self-awareness should sire resistance, for we exist ‘not?’ in a vacuum. Our mind…subsumed. We should seek not to consume.

Everyone is offering advice;
I ask. Who is doing this for free?
Is the doctrine of well-being a default mode of inaction?
Every day, my feeds are filled with the holy mantra of wellness.
Shall I meditate on the dream?
