I eat, therefore I am

I eat, therefore I am

I eat, therefore I am.

Experience impresses the field
Like a myriad pebbles dropped into a lake
Reflected in a thousand facing mirrors.

Follow the Ouroboros
(Don’t stop with the tail)
His throat is the black whole
At the center of every moment,
His mouth has no circumference.

Digestion happens
The Phoenix rises, that is its nature,
Provided all stay
Open and free.

Free Light

Free Light

Mawlana and Mr Cohen
Have been inverted.
Everything is cracking
And through the crevices
Up from the depths of what we are
From the underworld
The Light seeps through
Revealing the Truth
Which had been hidden

Free Light

Grace Passing

Grace Passing

What was broken
on the day of gratefulness
could not be repaired.
Musing at the ambiguity of disfunction,
Oh, this arm only lies here,
this mouth does not speak.
Like a child investigating
an old toy rediscovered.

Grace Passing
