skin love,
longone,as'if'yesterday, an alone dec'ade ago -
no getting no possessing standing under takes us,
root'd [in] essential[ly] wee

\\\\\\The Gift That Cannot Be Given/////
''The Buddha taught ‘kingly or queenly giving,’ which means giving the best of what we have, instinctively and graciously, even if none remains for ourselves. We are only temporary caretakers of all that is provided; essentially, we own nothing. As this understanding takes root in us, there is no getting, possessing, and giving; there is just the spaciousness that allows all things to remain in the natural flow of life.''
