It's important to keep in mind that there's a difference between what people say, and what they are trying to say.
If at all possible, listen behind the words.
Infinities
If a picture is worth a thousand words, how many is reality worth?
Bubbling
I'm just what you see bubbling on the surface of time.
Towards Transcendence
I will transcend the illusion of myself as matter in various of its conventional forms.
Placement
Don't miss where you're not.
It doesn't exist.
Roots
Through our dentists
we understand the depth and significance of roots.
We'll See
Just come.
We'll see what happens then.
Flow
I flow freely between spaces,
finding myself in the emptiness of them all.
Wind
I am a feather in the wind. Goodbye.
Hello again.
A Molecule
I am molecule among molecules,
tossed and thrown,
breathed in and blown outward.
Caressed less than I am kicked.
Free to Enter
I am a space
into which
you are free to enter
or depart
at your convenience.
The Depths
Depths are surfaces to yet greater depths,
and no depth can be found deeper than another.
Predilection
We love our pain more than we love our peace,
otherwise we’d have it.
Gravity
If the earth can conspire
to move billions of cubic meters of rock
through the mouth of a volcano,
thousands of meters into the sky,
how easy to move our measly few kgs
to wherever it wants?
Observation
An observation occurs at a given time
only in that we are aware of it and give it a ranking,
a number on a scale of other numbers,
each with a feeling attached,
ascending or descending
the elevator of our preferences.
The Idea of a Center
It’s so much easier
if we just give up
the idea of a center.
Now
If an atomic clock can break a second into 9 billion smaller pieces,
who can live in the now?
All Birthing
The whole process of our lives just occurs,
and from behind the occurrence of events,
after our thoughts have caught up with us, we say,
"yes, I planned that."
And we did,
as much as we planned our births.
Ends are Means
For some people the ends justify the means.
For others, the means are fundamental.
This can be summarized as then and now.
But if the present is eternal,
ends and means are the same.
What the Gecko Told Me Yesterday
What they gecko told me yesterday
the cricket confirmed.
The dove, though in agreement,
spoke over the span of a dozen wing beats.
A small bat struggling in the water of my pool
reminded me of how valuable is all life,
no matter how small.
Each contains the whole universe.
