Seeds

 

No need to transcend.

Awakening pervades

the dream, the dream

pervades awakening.

If you know that your next

inhalation is the paramour

who danced with the Creator

when the world was born,

there's nowhere else

you need to go.

Just dissolve the veil

between soul and body.

How? 

Pay a little more attention 

to what flows in and out.

It doesn't matter if your atoms

are made from the light of stars

that ceased to exist

before you were conceived.

Walk softly on the planet,

not like a landlord but a guest.

If you don't know how to bend  

and be hollow as a reed,

how can you be filled with music?
