Two realities

the unmanifest and the manifest
as energy withheld and then released
descent in duality then a test
that the demons we nurtured be appeased

the unmanifest is beyond space-time
as such it cannot be known to our mind
but in staid silence synced with bliss beat’s chime
one with the all we’re then divine entwined 

though immersed within but not of the world
then as both immanent and transcendent 
breath by breath as flag of love is unfurled
we recognise our Self, light resplendent 

the cosmic egg is wherefrom we were born ~
we return to heaven when ego’s shorn
