and the Sun
shines for everyone
why fear an eclipse?
why fear being eclipsed?
to be happy
another is great
to compete;
strive together
for greatness
why settle
for what is past
that mediocre happiness
conforming vision
surface dwelling
the depth
stands before
yet no awe?
to not face
the unknown
what little worries
what small aims
where is the real
wisdom courage
and strength?
wallowing in the same
what you’re told
in the easy
in the past
clinging to the shore
life moves
beyond you
come self
let us step
forward and
upward
al-one
where Dionysus?
where Apollo?
where the music
and the feasts?
the great ecstacy
of the poets?
the Divine madness
of the artist?
the transcending
view?
the extraordinary?
man so
small
dust
in an
infinite
ocean
what’s changed?
man gave up
settled down
forgot the
real
what he doesn’t know
anger
will not help
you here
another distraction
and corruption
you are the world
how you think
and see it
it be-comes
it is
and you
live it
the undercurrent
is coming;
inevitably
so why not
embrace
what is already here?
the wholesome
unknown
let go
your teachings
and schooling
look again into
the eye
fear not the
ever-changing
ever-present
the groundless
ground
was made for
dancing
let in
the thoughts
you’ve never
yet thought
let in
that which
you have yet to see
what you still
must learn
how to see
never seen
is what
you think
you already know
the blinding
light of truth
not known
to be a perspective
the ignorance
of the knower
what does he know?
only his own mind
projected
only his own
order
enforced on
the other
the dancer
who doesn’t
know he’s dancing
all is open
abounding
at all times
and moments
the open mind
can think all
things
plucking from
infinity
eternal wonders
