Compassionate Bondage Poem by Chuy Amante

Love knows no boundaries?
WHAT? did I hear that right?

Love knows boundaries well
Love knows no's and fails?

Is it boundless within boundaries?
Can it be boundless within boundaries?

If it is practiced within boundaries
is it love?

What kind of love is bound?
Sounds like a type of bondage?

What love is free and freeing and free?
Is it for one, two, or three or all humanity?

Does love include compassion
or does compassion
encompass love?

Who can stand with compassion
for all and not claim and limit
that offering of lovingkindness?
Compassion for all of life!

As a side note:
Oh there is a cesspool
on earth, full of people,
plans and darkness,
in fact it stinks

How much of ones time is spent
looking or swimming in there?

There is a place for mortals
a timeless zone of beauty
there is a gateway,
a path
to heaven's bliss

Choose your entertainment
and thoughts with awareness

What are your limitations?
and your limits, they are
yours only, you own them.

Guard them safely
or dispose of them?

Freely love all of life
each moment choose the bliss
of the moment and move
still-fully in the now

Why choose otherwise?
no, don't answer nor entertain
that question ever

Why not choose bliss,
right now, skip the steps
that may lead there
JUST BE THERE NOW!
