It's Already Broken

Have you noticed how
We cling to stuff
We do not really need -
Believing it will last forever
Unaware the "ephemeral creed."

The sages call this attachment
To the stuff in the physical plane.
Poppycock that keeps us imprisoned
Riding the karmic train.

If you

Remember your precious keepsake
Is already broken and lost -
Then when time comes to reclaim it
You won't suffer a holocaust.
