Untangle

there’s a darkness in

this entanglement, and

this entanglement 

is life

which way should one tread 

how to cut the path so the 

light shines through

like being lost in a dense jungle 

sun finds peepholes 

to let us know 

there is a way 

first we must untangle 

unburden of the unworthy 

unfetter this complex mind

find a simple path 

stick, stick, stuck to it 

do not diverge 

keep in mind the goal

stay the path

all roads lead home 

they say to take the middle road 

it’s untangled

did you fall off your path?

well, get back on

there’s time enough 

once you ask yourself 

truly,

which direction you wish to head

it is yours for the taking 

if you

stick, stick, stuck to it 

a release -

there’s a lightness to 

untangling 

up and beyond

don't sweat the small stuff they say....maybe we shouldn't sweat the big stuff either...just accept what is thrown at us, deal with it and move on with a smile.
what we have to untangle is basically what we ourselves have entwined.
