I can say this

4.14.10

I can say this

true inner poise 

is a mystery

who has walked the line

between the ultimate

and the relative

without being seduced

by self-obsession

the Buddha

the Christ

perhaps

but were they 

truly seeking 

the godhead

or fleeing samsara

I know in my life

my most sincere intentions

for the one

are rendered insignificant

when the unfathomable

mass of the self

wants to move

and yet

even during the most desperate 

aftermath of turmoil

the calling

reawakens
