There is a place Where you know everything. You have to find it in the ground Near the place where crickets sing. It's in that place Where lively things grow. When you're ready, they will find you And then teach you how to know. Now see the flames Burn the sky blue and red; Observe the fractal patterns, Let them soak deeply into your head. Lift up your face On your back where you lie. Gold and silver stars trace circles Infernos in the black endless sky. Then fear takes hold And your fright pulls you in. Let your soul rumble with the earth And then learn to grapple with your sin. Look at the moon; It reflects you and your plight. Gaze on her subtle beauty and Spiral violently into the night. Traverse the spaces While fog circles your spine, And winds blow violet clouds that rain Wisdom through the tendrils of your mind. There is a pain, Pulsing greens and purples; Receding, weaving your spirit Orderly in beautiful circles. The universe All of this erases: The one layer, shattering and split, Swirling intonations like the graces. Knowing to be, Being just to exist; Living life perpetually Humming in a cosmic state of bliss. Your whole being Has set flight to your hates, Allowing you to spend your days Helping others to carry their weights. Now you are able To follow the path that is right, Fully passing through your trials, And settle peacefully into the light. |
