Walking on a path
I saw a purple mushroom
And I thought “Surprise!”
The ‘shroom made me think
On attachments/aversions:
They control our lives.
We have attachments:
“This idea has beauty,
So I must want it!!!”
We attach purple
To royalty, flamboyance,
Luxury, maaaagic.
When attachments win,
Existence becomes a blur:
Suffering of change.
When aversions come,
The idea lacks beauty-
Want not to want it
Purple aversions:
It doesn’t suit the office.
Purple food is WEIRD.
If aversions score,
All movements become stressful
And erode our minds.
But, all ‘shrooms exist
Outside of our perceptions:
Spotted, brown or white.
So, purple mushrooms
Deserve neither want nor hate.
Thus, I just took pics.
