Life is as life does;
\nIt becomes what life a life was.
\nLife will be as life is doing.
\nPresent action is just a manifestation of the things for which we have yet to account.<\/p>\n
I know there is nothing here,
\nyet all the nothingness I experience
\ntakes on the forms and shapes
\nI mistake for objects.
\nAll the nothingness I experience
\ntakes on the false meaning and pretense
\nof a world.
\nI am trapped in that false pretense–this world.<\/p>\n
Yet, all the nothingness I experience
\nleaves me without a sense of the nothingness
\nthat prevails.<\/p>\n
I am left with nothing of nothingness;
\nin this regard I have everything.
\nIn this regard, I long for nothing,
\nFor I have everything.<\/p>\n
I experience everything.
\nI experience the thoughts attached to
\nthe nothingness that takes on the forms
\nI see and feel and touch and know.<\/p>\n
Those thoughts lead me on;
\nThose thoughts take a grip upon the self I
\ndon’t experience, expect by shunning
\nall experience,
\nand keep me in their grip.<\/p>\n
Those thoughts shape the nothingness
\ninto the something and the something I
\nexperience
\nThe something that leads the thoughts
\nthat shape the nothingness
\ninto the something and the something else I
\nexperience.<\/p>\n
And life goes on.
\nOr seems to.
\nFor without the nothingness, there cannot be
\na something;
\nno thing can exist.<\/p>\n
Out of the nothingness come all the things
\nI shape with thought and belief and
\nexperience.<\/p>\n
And so
\nI experience my
\nexperience
\nof all things,
\nand of nothing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
