The TAO*

The TAO*

Something happened a long time ago

It came out of nowhere in what it knows

A vision it had that heard a call

Central in its doing, minutely seeing so small

It only seen of itself as a start from what it began

This of itself shall never have an end

Though it may be right where it is as it stays

But knows perfectly where it is going for this thing is the way

A new always begins*

A new always begins*

The myth we confront as what eyes to look

Goes by like the pages of an  open book

For what is without us is an illusion indeed

That is not who we are when we know who to be

When you narrow it down and watch it implode

The external world begins its end and starts to erode

Take away its darkness in the night

Or brilliance of the day with its light

When you leave this by itself you will get a better view

You will find out of one only, it is you that is the truth

So no longer can you be what made you outside of here

You have now established a place, so accurate and so clear

Nothing else can possibly be a life you once known

Sought nowhere to go from that, in missing your home

Hence you will find out that all stems from you within

Every moment that this happens, a new you always begins

TAO-ZEN steps*

TAO-ZEN steps*

We walk the fine line we call a thread
Inside this fine line is the term straight ahead
Moving about and seeking no other reality
Getting way from the objective and letting it be
One dominates and the other does the same
A constant struggle for both is in its frame
But this is yin-yang complete
It is the middle way or the TAO at your feet
