if you could remove one habit from your routine
if you could identify a fault then work on going lean
what would it be could you nail it honestly
will false pride create obstacles in your journey
if you could remove one chapter from your experiences
if you could reread and rewrite it altering nuances
which one would it be the ‘why’ behind it can you see
could you afford the skill set choices don’t come for free
if you could remove one person from your acquaintances
if you could detect the real reason without giving defenses
who would it be would your judgement be shadowy
could you resist playing God for handing out the decree
if you could remove one want from your list of desires
if you could live without the extra trappings you consider so dire
why would it be would it disturb the mind tree
could you thwart the need for more is greed control the key
if you could remove one complaint from all your disgruntlement
if you could determine what it takes to articulate contentment
how would you be able to draw the line of satisfaction
could you stop comparing your life steering it with proper traction
if you could remove one tear from another’s eye
if you could be the reason for bringing on their smile
when you raise your standard of living would you raise your standard of giving
could you shun judging people and simply practice forgiving
