Mistaken Notions
False evidence appearing real.
With what illusions do I wake?
That I am alone. That this burden is mine.
That this road ends.
❖
The day begins, I am already tangled in false thoughts.
Remind me, hour by hour. Strip away each mistaken notion.
Reveal yourself, Lord.

Consider:
Which of my own ideas are mistaken?
