A SLOW RIDE IN A LIFT WITH A GURU

stuck in a lift
with an ear-bending guru -
tackle questions
before they become urgent
ensure changes
are made as and when necessary
ditch worries
until you are confident
about the future
keep arrangements loose
until a full moon
expect the unexpected
anticipate the unanticipated
broad horizons
look and learn
show interest
disentangle yourself
cast off burdens
rethink dreams
relinquish freedoms
if you must
say yes until
it makes sense to say no
recognize the cycles
of offers and ideas
know your rhythms
melodies, harmonies
dynamics, timbres,
tones, forms
and on and on
and on and on
the maharishi mutters
wisdom fast becoming
whizz-dumb
yawns stifled
nostrils flaring
eyes rolling
lift noise
twenty seconds
ground floor
