I work
To think and feel
To see and hear,
To know, but not to judge.
The idea:
Feel out options.
Long term plans
Depend on time and place frame.
If I am frameless picture,
Then schemes are plain and bold,
Unhindered by thoughts that supposedly formed them.
Spontaneity is an action plan
Made less-than-seconds ahead,
And a million years ago,
Like a seed that finally feels
Its time is right to grow.
I resolve to dissolve
All plans and expectations
In the ocean of True Self,
To let them wash ashore
One by one
Until maybe I see a pattern
And can fish out what really matters.
Until then,
I let myself float
In a sea of all,
And resolve.
