Slanted rays
piercing;
That small round effigy of a sun
appears,
reappears;
moves with the sun,
tracing a
path across a
darkened room,
tracing time against
a backdrop of
a darkened room;
tracing the
life
of all that can
be across a darkened room.

The life of all that can be:
little more than small
white point of Light,
traversing a darkened
universe;
traversing and tracing
time,
as though
time were nought
but the function
of the life that
traces it.

Shafted white,
illuminating
dust,
illuminating all
in it’s path,
crossing all
things in it’s path,
recording all
in it’s path,
which already
and always are
part of its path.
That shaft of white,
the light piercing
darkness of
an empty room,

The Light piercing
darkness of an
empty life
are both to be
found, and realized
and experienced for
both are there
to be found and
experienced for
both are there.

This Light;
this dark;
how can there be dark
without Light,
or light without dark?
To take away Light is
to take away dark also,
for both the Light and the dark
have been made necessary:
light cannot be Light without the
darkness that makes Light light.

In a perfect void there
is and can be
no Light or dark;
Light in perfection cannot be
as light would seem.
Then and then

only, in that void is there
Perfection.
Perfection transcends the darkness
of knowledge and the Light
of wisdom;
transcends the darkness of
ignorance and the
light of knowledge;
the darkness of desire
and Light of will;
Transcends the darkness
of Light and the
Light of desire.
Perfection transcends
the perfect,
as only perfection
may be found
without
Light or darkness.

Through empty room
that piercing shaft of
light moves;
but an empty room is not
a void,
cannot approach perfection,
as empty life is
not devoid of perfection
but is not perfection
and cannot be perfect.

The empty room of this life,
meager in its illumination,
allows only that looked
for to be seen,
and only that seen
to be known.
only that known
experienced.

We must see the Light
by which the room
may be illuminated;
The Light traversing the
rooms of the universe;
The Light that can light
the way:
The Light that is the
way to
transcend
the Light, the dark,
the person,
and all darkened rooms.
