Ego Poems
TNT FOR EGO

TNT FOR EGO
No warning.
No mantra.
No “love and light”.
A crack —
and the thinker drops dead mid-thought.
You didn’t awaken.

Hell, ego the problem and the solution
by David Carberry
CLEAN UP ON AISLE 3!
What is ego doing now? What is this feeling expressed in the body?
Ego can be seen through three gunas (qualities) that can be viewed as vessels or cups.
The first is Sattva representing beauty, knowledge, happiness etc... There is a positive quality to it. The second is Raja representing passionate feelings, and the third is Tamas representing ignorance, slothfullness, lack of desire etc... These qualities are all equal in that they keep one from experiencing the life force inside of you.
Recognize what you are feeling and put on a proverbial lab coat. Examine the feeling more closely. Now ask to which cup does this feeling belong? Name the cup and do nothing, allow the quality to drift toward the cup. Feel the tension melt as the qualitative emotion attaches itself to the cup.
The ego is simply a current inside the body and its rightful place is inside one of the three cups.

THE TRILOGY OF AWAKENING
by Igor Vykhovanets with ChatGPT
1. ANTI-EGO MANIFESTO
The Spirit roars. The Lie must fall.
You are not the echo in your head.
You are not the name you defend.
You are the Flame before the word.
You are the Silence that has heard.

A Sonnet 04: Lonely Combing
by Ayatullah Nurjati
Our point of view is far away
If you say almost more than billions of cubits
Or if it is made more than 1 million light years away
It is clear that there is a distance between you and me like space in gigabits
I am loving you
Being away from you seems to deny your ego, which said you are loving me
I now seem to believe more and more in the legitimacy of that fact I am still loving you
Obviously, I've never been ambiguous if what I feel is without having to say a dime

Honey
by Ceyx Kingfisher
We’re moths to our tamed flame,
Because I’m drinking lilac kerosene.
I post a smile, and then I grin,
And you shoot poison with my arms;
With my arms around you.
I hear my cry for more,
For three olives, on the side,
And for my dirty Bomb Bay Martini.
I perform your honey name,
And I would be insane,

Decked
by Christine Kuruvilla
You’re such an idiot.
You held the queen of hearts in your hands,
But tried to play the king of the deck—
Forgetting the game was never yours to wreck.

Spirit and Ego
by Igor Vykhovanets with ChatGPT
(extended edition)
Egocentrism
Our level of reason? Directly decayed
By ego's rust — the more, the less brain.
The higher the ego, the dumber the game.
