What madness to sit seven, nine, eleven hours a day
the focus the breath, of the breathing of the man to prove he's not
dead, his mind conditioned to react & still greater madness
are days when the sitting is
missing, the breath unconscious, sensations unrecognized
out
on that limb somehow you become aware is a subtle vibration
an undulant wave
intensely manifesting the energy @ the core of this human. Energy of
azure
sky @ 5:15
w/ no
quickened clouds to obscure the red-tailed hawks' drop straight down.
Fresh perspective enabled (ennobled) by silence &
water careening past licorice-stained tongue
in
the mind there another sankara releases (or does it?), the
throat swallows hard again & again throughout the sangha.
The dreams are vivid/emerge like the
sea offering up polished wood
@
high tide, the pull of the waxing moon, the
noon questions of breath & throbbing. About tolerance extended.
The mind a
sea. Another storm emerges. There is no newspaper to distract
staring @ the carnage of forty years of urge & reaction, in the
north before the Dipper again melts beyond foggy treeline.
A deeper urge revealed, procreant, a
woman's legs visible underneath a sheer skirt of lace, her
body & potential touch it represents is it
your need - your craving - does it drive you? settle your debts? do you
music it for yourself & recommit to misery & the fear of drowning.
