The Arhat of Bitter Reading

I wonder if there's no writing in the text
Or no words in my eyes
Or no me in the text
Or no text in my mind
Or if that text really exists at all
Or if this me has already vanished

Between heaven and earth

Only one dumb rock remains
Intricately patterned standing alone and quiet
Silent without a word

The Arhat of Bitter Thought

How confusing

I wonder whence came flying
This big burning rock
A heap of weird imponderable questions
As weighty as this, to fall into my arms
Totally without reason, colliding in my mind

Torturing me as I stand here

Dazed and foolish
With sweat dripping like bronze juice
Tongue curled like a wilted leaf
Just short of turning into a heap of
Fragmented rock
Cracked by parching thirst

The Arhat of Abandoning the Mind

He takes his mundane mind
Lightly with the tips of his fingers

And flicks it away
Down it floats like a lone
Red leaf
Into the water

figures bourne fire
stressed, tattered attire

from whence they came
to whence they go

none cries the same
they seldom show

for minds set lively
a girth of joy
their walk turns highly
they ware king's toy

to enthuse such one
from thoughtful war
to balance the strife
to even the score

a dream, a dream
a dream made real
to real to seem
you could not feel

[youtube][/youtube]



well travelled enough to encourage it

niche born, niche found

like the more fully charismatic

to say "this niche from my hand, or thine, to mould"

or to merely see
and know
what's not done by thee

shown up for lack of a show?

but, young yet... & more to know

to curse an immature fig tree?

nay, let the whispers become song

a few well placed pillars amongst the landscape of thought
not to exceed material's spec


[youtube][/youtube]

but that we could discover hidden dance floors

and announce in silence
with the profundity of subconscious body language
"i get it"
instantiate vacuous truth

the language dawning must have had denrite / white matter shifts

language informs form

some forms but light deep

while others density becomes more conmplex beyond the light's bounce

cabinet?

psychokenis phenom would require the subject to feel beyond light's event horizon...

mishearing or data failure
Hypnosis is a distinctive, often trance-like mental state that is induced by
an organized pattern of suggestions, usually verbal in nature, beginning
with the suggestion of relaxation. The suggestions may be directly
induced by a hypnotist in the presence of the subject, but may be also be
self-induced (self-hypnosis or autohypnosis/auto-suggestion).
distorted or misinterpreted real perception
Although the long held popular view was that hypnosis is form of
unconsciousness, the informed contemporary view is that it is actually a
wakeful state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, with
diminished peripheral awareness.
Franz Mesmer in the 1700s believed that there was a magnetic fluid that surrounds the body.

'here' is when things happen

'there' is hopeful slight

the useful learning, twether there or here

the skills words or pine

just as useful there and here?

the sky, the dream, the kind or mean

what of here that's nothing to there?

what of there, that couldna here?

every little fold of the brain

firing, singed, molten future

here is when

there is maybe

earth and sky is earth and sky


so here be the limit of the sense?

or could there make sense with here?

likely not without it

big.

round.

pertinent

electronic eavesdropping 'there',
to make here there version of cool

but the trendsetters din:

a dance confused?

or patently abused?

brother, do'na pin your hopes on me
with brittle tape and strings to thee

your own bones carry
your own breath breathe

brother, do'na pin your hopes on me

me and a world
you and your girl

brother, do'na pin your hopes on me
