Great clarity guys! This transparency in poetry

reminds one of the great satory poems written

by Zen masters.

Such fluidity of movement. Like an arrow caught by the breeze...

 

The very tip of the arrow

Flying in perpetual newness

 

Letting the breeze be empty

Of assessment

And of feelers

Holy Smokes!

 

What an image!

Incredible...

 

Like an arrow caught by the breeze...

 

And:

 

Letting the breeze be empty

Of assessment

And of feelers

 

empty of assessment and of feelers...

Now isn't that lovely.

 

Yes, this arrow is "comfortably numb"

caught here in the breeze,

and the bow... it does seem slack.

 

And "no wind" is blowing a mighty gale,

I see it following my vapor trail.

 

Who am I, what am I, all that left behind.

 

Hmmm... do you think space is curved?

 

And where is the "no wind" blowing to

do you think?

 

Why I think it is blowing into my navel.

And from there into my heart.

And the curve of space unfolds from here.

 

I think I'll descend into the Emptiness of Now,

and quaff a cup of Light.

 

Wow. Heady stuff!

 

Yep! That's me.

 

Unborn Again.

 

Bill
