Fear and Awe..

 

Fear and awe

Are not separated..

As any two words

Are not..

These seeming

Expressions of

Not-knowing...

Stories and Peace...

 

The stories

Terrorism and war

Bring attention to

The battleground

Of separation believed..

This simple diagnosis

May seem to suggest

Both a lack of hope

And a solution..but

Both are more stories..

A suggestion of

Peace...? 

Not-knowing..

 

Not-Two

Is not-knowing..

The "finding"

Of no separation

Between any

Two seeming things...

The senses..

 

The senses

Sometimes seen as

Fundamental producers

Of what appears..

As is the brain..

Cause and effect

Tells this logical 

Empty story...

Need to know..

 

Not knowing

Seems as freedom

When appearing as a

Need to know...

The river..

 

The river

Seems to 

Flow and connect..

An inventor of time

Arguing persuasively

Of the time and space of things..

Yet stillness and motion

Are not-two..rendering the

River a pop-up miracle...
