And if I ever become complacent,
unroot me from my stagnant comfortability
and shake me
shift me until I am disoriented and desperate
for something more
something more
than my idle walk carelessly into repetitive behaviors
and repetitive mindset
and the twisted idea that repetition and familiarity
will give me any sense of a real purpose
And if I ever become complacent,
I give you permission to make me
feel something so deeply that it
fervors a restlessness in my soul to act
rapidly and honestly
Remind me of the necessary
zest that life has when you taste it the way you should
that even though adventure and risks are often scary
that it’s okay to jump off the edge a little bit
to feel faith establish a home in your gut
but do not confuse it for fear
And if I ever become complacent,
dissemble this safe haven I’ve built myself in
Take off this blindfold and show me the world and how badly it hurts
Show me that there is too much work to be done to be comfortable
You can be comfortable when you’re gone from this place
Until then,
do not become complacent
refuse to slip idly into this comfort
and live to be shaken a little bit
Live to have your sphere rattled for the sake of necessary change
You can be comfortable when you’re gone from this place
Until then,
squirm purposely
