zen



Honest to is
   drops mindlessness
   of there and then,

A whirlpool of thoughts
   emptying in still point
   here and now,

Awareness
   changing want or hate
   from the inside
   as the seed knows the flower,

Discovering uniqueness
   in immediate experience 
   that is the universe,

Sitting in the silence
   of the wombing void
   that blossoms a lotus flower:

Oneness.
