you are home

when you stop,
when you
leave the crowd.
turn off the set, put
down the phone.
when you quit, not join,
you are almost home.
when you
leave behind
everything you have
owned, when you submit
to what is,
what was and what will be,
then you are almost
home.
when you desire
less, take less,
and give more, 
wanting nothing in return,
suddenly
your old skin falls away.
and at last you have arrived,
you are home.
