You have scattered your awareness in all directions,
and your vanities are not worth a bit of cabbage.The root of every thorn draws
the water of your attention toward itself.How will the water of your attention reach the fruit?
Cut through the evil roots, cut them away.
Direct the Bounty of God to spirit and insight,
not to the knotted and broken world outside.
“Your vanities are not worth a bit of cabbage” (Midnight Wine)
