Mountain of Silence


The mountain of silence rises inward. The summit is the abyss. Climb by sinking. 

There is only one word here, humming forever, "Am." "I" was never born.

A withered leaf on its twig is a withered leaf on its twig. The moon in a puddle, rainbowed by gasoline, is the moon in a puddle rainbowed by gasoline. 


A stray white dog is a stray white dog, silhouette on garbage mound, bathed in luminous distance, washed by the diamond transparency of miraculous night.

Thus, in solitude, attain intimacy with creatures near and far.
