Poem: Non-Attachment and Building a Future

Non-Attachment and Building a Future
Sell everything
It'll make a good story
and besides that, you're tired
of the things that
  you own.
Sell them.
The time is right.
Auction your burden
like treasures
and be free.

Give.
Millions of people
have abandoned possessions
for a promise
of survival.
This is your life.
Make it real.
Fold paper
  cranes from your thesis.
Make peace with
  your struggles.
Summarize your pages
  of notes
and move on.
-CBF Nov. 2012
