poet tree leaves

can you recall

the last time a flower said hello?

did you stop to listen

or ignore its teachings?

either way

the cycle of life

yin and yang

cyclical unfolding

this infinite happening

in the notes of a strawberry

who are you without tomorrow

who are you without yesterday

who are you without your face

now decay

drop your time

walking to the wind

bends the incomplete

bird sings the path to be

now

look at your skin and thank your sun

it constructs you here

feel the near

what do you hear?

let it in

now let it go

so you'll have know idea the places you'll go

mind opening

the gateless gate

bend straight

and the preordained dance decay

for the love of life

stop swimming in the sea

of forced reality

everywhere everything

creativity creates the day

in continuous flow

of expression

constant is change

now bee

be free as the infinite going

happening breath of stillness

from which all change contained

the way

bends to the wind blow

requires the let go

of the think I know

the way

look in the eye of a passerby

light finds the web of dreams

delicate strand tethered

between skin seams

then breathe

each other in

try to put a stream in a bucket

try to put the wind in a bag

try to put yourself in a box

and call it a house

dust clings to sweat

feet cling to earth

namaste bitches reserved
