The Heart Prevails

We agreed the time,
and I was late.
I guess I don't
appreciate.

'Cause if I did,
would I'd be there?
But I was late.
And do I care?

What's wrong with me?
Should I be vexed?
And worried about
what's coming next?

Or did I finally
glimpse and see
that it's not really
up to me.

Buddhas make effort.
Humans set time.
I'm not clear which
heart is mine.

Sometimes one way.
Sometimes that.
Muddy, I wonder
where I'm at.

Spin me. Spin me.
Round and round.
Who dares stand
and be knocked down?

We agreed the time;
this human failed.
The vexation is silent
when the heart prevails.
