~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Line of inquiry: Betwixt two thoughts there is a gap. No illusions therein entrap. In the time stretched pause we then see Ego craving is a mousetrap. crack in the teacup where steam hesitates. the old scholar traces inkblots on rice paper, saying watch the gap. not emptiness, but space humming with moths that taste thought-dust before wings unfold. no trap snaps here—only hunger suspended like a spider’s thread above wet grass. ego starves in that pause, whiskers twitching at the cheese-less dark. only stillness answers.
