IN THE DARK
IN THE DARK
Only a fool draws
A line between the living
And the non-living
For where oh where shall we
Mask-encumbered fools that we be
In unwitting ignorance decide
To draw … in windblown sand …
Some fingerwagger of a line?
A vital question long overlooked
How ever to draw
A line between the living
And the non-living?
Only a fool draws
A line between the living
And the non-living
NOW AND THEN (TAO AND ZEN)
NOW AND THEN (TAO AND ZEN)
Time passes us by
Tao and Zen we remember
Then forget again
THE POLYMATH
THE POLYMATH
Lesson by lesson
Lessons that do not lessen
But instead enhance
The one in the all
All one in togetherness
Alone together
DOORSTEP
DOORSTEP
Fishes and insects
Going about their business
A crow motionless
Calm observation
Without consideration
This is Heaven’s door
THE MESSAGE
THE MESSAGE
Black on black shows not
White on white shows not either
Each needs the other
BALANCE II
BALANCE II
Quite the opposite!
Once again breathes
Inhales, holds, exhales
Regains the balance
