the Tao
Horton got it right
We are a mere speck
Of a speck
Of a speck, et cetera
We can’t begin to fathom
Why we can’t fathom
What we can’t fathom
A million miles up there
Does not even begin
To touch the surface
Of the surface
The sun and the moon
Barely (in)significant
In its course
No comparison, immeasurable
There are no boundary lines
It does not break nor bend
There is no pre-emptive design
There is no end
You have no answers
There is no end
We are a mere speck
Of a speck
Of a speck, et cetera
We can’t begin to fathom
Why we can’t fathom
What we can’t fathom
A million miles up there
Does not even begin
To touch the surface
Of the surface
The sun and the moon
Barely (in)significant
In its course
No comparison, immeasurable
There are no boundary lines
It does not break nor bend
There is no pre-emptive design
There is no end
You have no answers
There is no end

An Awakening
the same force
that makes life possible
the same force
that makes death inevitable

the same force

You Give The Mind Liberty Or You Give The Body Death
The echoes of my mind unto rainbows softly unfurls
Soaring within the firmaments of His covenant as a peaceful bird
I like it so much better up here
No more pain, and no more tears
Revelation twenty-one verse four
The moon is where my Chakras takes me too when I need peace to seep from my pores
Stirring down below
Hades, carnage, political corruption daily blows
Breathe clean air the...

The kee beeper and the bee keeper
Yesterday,
I saved a bee from a fountain,
and it stayed in my hand until it was dry enough to fly away.
I would still save them all,
even if they all stung me.

INSERT, POP-UP, REFLUX - PAUSE (12:30am, 7-3-2010; Palm Springs, California)
each day
i live
i see
i feel
i sense
i know
sometimes even
back and forth
a little more
a little less
through days
through weeks
through months
through years
i wake
to the east
spread roots
to the south
dream
to the west
gain strength
insight
wisdom
and power
from the north
when and with
my feet are in the earth
my head in the clouds
my heart in the sea
and my mind
my spirit
and being
are all filled
with radiant
life giving...

Temporary Delay
I went to build a cairn
but could not get to where I know the rocks are.
Usually, a mandala is constructed
before we act like it never existed.

Helpless
My brain, in the middle of the night
while I'm sleeping,
is trying to figure out,
without my knowabouts,
how to get out of my skull.
I can't get it out of my head
now that I have absolutely no way
to communicate with my brain,
to tell it to calm down.
Fascinating. The mind.
The darkness
within the darkness.
The murmed brain that expels the thought.

Weight Loss
Since we don't own anything anyway,
Can't take it with us when we die
Or just go anywhere outside the home,
Sell or give to charity or someone who will use it
Everything that you
do not need
do not use
do not want
that does not bring you joy,
and you will suddenly feel
Lighter,
Lightly,
More like light.

I died that already
Be a good student...
I died that already.
Be an athlete...
I died that already.
Be a tutor/professor/educator...
I died that already.
Be an operations manager...
I died that already.
When I chose there was nothing to be,
I achieved immortality.

The farthest back I can remember, there were already forms…forms, faces, locations. I remember seeing them and watching them like I was a viewer with no body of my own. It all felt familiar but mostly random. The people and the places didn’t seem to match and would often switch without reason. I remember feeling very strong connections to many of the images I saw, but I cannot refine a memory to a particular emotional reaction to a particular scenario.
I have no way to measure how long things went on like that, but, eventually, the forms and faces and...
