Beyond Our Control

Hold on to loose ends As the tides rip and pull In just an instant Out beyond our control Without ground Without a shore Without care For something more Releasing burdens In just one final breath We are delivered In the Clear Light of death In and out we ride The Great Breath of Brahma Eternal Dance Of Shiva In endless cycles of drama As waves of time lap These shores with persistence All our castles dissolve With no hope of resistance (2/19/25)
