Internal Rhyme / The Now

I no longer feel barred in regard

to things too complicated or things too hard

especially to the unforeseen around my neck

which I now wear with respect to the understanding

that I am all I create.

I tended to see my wrecks a little too late

as I frustrated my intuitive thoughts which I would then underestimate

and around and around it would go

and where it stopped only I would know

as this evolution of pollution tended to create the simple solution

for I did this everyday,

day in and day out

without realizing what it was all about.

I doubted execution of retribution

as the prostitution of my own personal constitution

played it over and over again

living outside of the box instead of within.

I seemed to have no need of assistance for co-existence.

I tended to unconsciously accept who I was right then somehow.

I disavowed just how I actually felt right then in my NOW.

The rock and the hard place actually seemed holier than thou

somehow right then in that NOW
 
which I did not know about then but know now 

for I have recently learned... everything is... believe it or not...
 
perfect as it stands somehow, right here, right now!

I just need to be aware of it and not endow its resistance of existence in my present moment.

I just have to know how, some way, somehow right now

for this is merely the why and how in allowing the Tao its vow in knowing the how...

and over and over it goes and where it stops nobody knows but myself right now!

I am what I believe myself to be in the here and now.

How? I now understand that there is no past and there is no future, at last!

It's just the how in the conscious NOW
for the cognitive now is the true unknown mystic that drives it somehow.

I just now wish to make it a habit to moniter my mental state through self-observation

to help bring me the realization of my own appreciation of delivering my NOW to exaltation.

IT CAN BE DONE... as I realize I am touching it RIGHT NOW!

A nice job of internal rhyme, something which I have difficulty doing.
