The Last Rabbit Chase
Never will we know
Our last rabbit chase
The one that gets us
Out of bed in the morning
To extend ourselves beyond
With the enthusiasm
For living in the chase
Toward the possibilities
Of catching greatness
As if the greatness
IS the chase—
The possibility of the catch
To the exclusion of all else
Never will we know
Our last rabbit chase
The day life changes
On its head, turns us
upside down
inside out,
falling,
fumbling
Until we realize we are
Now down the rabbit hole
The chase having consumed us
And we can see in the darkness
For the first time
We can see
We can see in our fumbling that
Our true greatness lives in
Our surrender to the rabbit hole
Our surrender to the Mystery
