Easy Does It

-------Easy Does It-------

The efficiency gained by any advance in technology
will never compare to the ease
and ultimate productivity
of letting go to every desire to advance.

The higher we build,
the further we get from our roots.
The more we develop,
the more burdens we create.

To again know
the richness of simply living
will take progress in the other direction
than where we have been told.

There's no paved road
to take us
where we need to go;

no new seed
that could feed us better
than those passed down from a time before poison would fake fertility;

no written law
to defend the justice deeper
than the righteousness inherent to our nature.

There is nothing beyond
what we already have,
and everything we will ever need
needs only to be uncovered.
